If \(\mathbf{a}, \mathbf{b}\) and \(\mathbf{c}\) are three vectors such that \(\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{b}=\mathbf{c}, \mathbf{b} \times \mathbf{c}=\mathbf{a}\) and \(\mathbf{a}, \mathbf{b}, \mathbf{c}\) are mutually perpendicular to each other, then \(|\mathbf{b}|\) is equal to

  1. A -1 only
  2. B 0 only
  3. C 1 only
  4. D \(\pm 1\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 1 only

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

It is given that \(\mathbf{a}, \mathbf{b}\) and \(\mathbf{c}\) are mutually perpendicular vectors, such that \(\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{b}=\mathbf{c}\) and \(\mathbf{b} \times \mathbf{c}=\mathbf{a}\). So, \[ (b \times c) \times b=c \] \(\Rightarrow\) (b b)…
