The intercept made by the plane vec r ....

The intercept made by the plane ` vec r . vec n=q` on the x-axis is a. `q/( hat i dot vec n)` b. `( hat i dot vec n)/q` c. `( hat i dot vec n)/q` d. `q/(| vec n|)`

A

`(q)/(hati.vecn)`

B

`(hati.vecn)/(q)`

C

`(hati.vecn)/(q)`

D

`q/(|vecn|)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a
x intercept is say `x_(1)` i.e., the plane passes through it . Therefore,
`x_(1)hati.vecn=qorx_(1)=(q)/(hati.vecn)`
