Let \(\mathbf{a}, \mathbf{b}\) and \(\mathbf{c}\) be non-zero vectors such that \((\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{b}) \times \mathbf{c}=\frac{1}{3}|\mathbf{b} \| \mathbf{c}| \mathbf{a}\). If \(\theta\) is the acute angle between the vectors \(\mathbf{b}\) and \(\mathbf{c}\), then \(\sin \theta\) is equal to

  1. A \(\frac{1}{3}\)
  2. B \(\frac{2}{3}\)
  3. C \(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}\)
  4. D \(\frac{2 \sqrt{2}}{3}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\frac{2 \sqrt{2}}{3}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\begin{aligned} & \text { Given, }(\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{b}) \times \mathbf{c}=\frac{1}{3}|\mathbf{b} \| \mathbf{c}| \mathbf{a} \\ & \Rightarrow-\{\mathbf{c} \times(\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{b})\}=\frac{1}{3}|\mathbf{b} \| \mathbf{c}| \mathbf{a} \quad[\because \mathbf{a}…
