Let \(\mathbf{u}\) and \(\mathbf{v}\) be two non-zero vectors. Then the magnitude of the cross product \(\mathbf{u} \times \mathbf{v}\) is always

  1. A \( < |u||v|\)
  2. B \(=|u||v|\)
  3. C \(>|u||v|\)
  4. D \(=0\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \( < |u||v|\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The cross product of \(u\) and \(v\) non-zero vectors is \(\mathbf{u} \times \mathbf{v}=|\mathbf{u} \| \mathbf{v}| \sin \theta \hat{\mathbf{n}}\), if angle between them is \(\theta\). So, \(\quad|u \times v|=|u||v||\sin \theta|\)…
