Consider a vector `vecc `
Prove that, `vecc= (hati.vecc)hati+ (hatj .vecc) hatj + (hatk. vecc)hatk`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a
Statement 2 is true (see properties of dot product)
Also ` (hatixxveca) .vecb=hati. (veca xxvecb)`
`Rightarrow veca xxvecb = (hati. (vecaxxvecb))hati+ (hatj. (vecaxxvecb))hatj + (hatk. (veca xx vecb))hatk`
