Let `veca=a_(1)hati+a_(2)hatj+a_(3)hatk,vecb=b_(1)hati+b_(2)hatj+b_(3)hatk and vecc=c_(1)hati+c_(2)hatj+c_(3)hatk` be three non-zero vectors such that `vecc` is a unit vector perpendicular to both `veca and vecb`. If the angle between `veca and vecb is pi//6` then the value of `|{:(a_(1),b_(1),c_(1)),(a_(2),b_(2),c_(2)),(a_(3),b_(3),c_(3)):}|"is"`

A

0

B

1

C

`1/4(a_(1)^(2)+a_(2)^(2)+a_(3)^(2))(b_(1)^(2)+b_(2)^(2)+b_(3)^(2))`

D

`3/4(a_(1)^(2)+a_(2)^(2)+a_(3)^(2))(b_(1)^(2)+b_(2)^(2)+b_(3)^(2))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c

` (veca xx vecb . Vecc)^(2) = |veca|^(2) |vecb|^(2) |vecc|^(2) sin^(2) theta cos^(2) phi`
(` theta` is the angle between `veca and vecb , phi , =0)`
`1/4 (a_(1)^(2)+ a_(2)^(2) +a_(3)^(2) (b_(1)^(2) +b_(2)^(2) + b_(3)^(2))`
