If two vectors \(\vec{a}\) and \(\vec{b}\) are such that \(|\vec{a}|=2,|\vec{b}|=3\) and \(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}=4\), then \(|\vec{a}-2 \vec{b}|\) is :
- A 24
- B \(2 \sqrt{2}\)
- C \(2 \sqrt{6}\)
- D 40
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(2 \sqrt{6}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(| \vec{a}-2 \vec{b} |^2 = | \vec{a} |^2 - 4 (\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}) + 4 | \vec{b} |^2\) \(| \vec{a}-2 \vec{b} |^2 = (2)^2 - 4(4) + 4(3)^2\) \(| \vec{a}-2 \vec{b} |^2 = 4 - 16 + 36 = 24\) \(| \vec{a}-2 \vec{b} | = \sqrt{24} = 2 \sqrt{6}\)

The inheritance of flower color in the dog flower (Snapdragon or Antirrhinum sp.) can be understood by crossbreeding between true-breeding red-flowered (RR) and true-breeding white-flowered plants (rr). When they were crossed, F₁ (Rr) was pink. When F₁ was self-pollinated, the F₂ results were Red, Pink and White. Here the genotype ratios were exactly as expected, but the phenotype ratios have been changed. What happened was that R was not completely dominant over r and this made it possible to distinguish Rr as pink from RR (Red) and rr (White).
What will be the percentage of progeny in F₁ generation when RR (red flowered plant) is crossed with rr (white flowered plant) in the above passage?CUET 2025 Medium - Which food item are ripened to get a particular flavour by growing of a specific fungi on them?CUET 2023 Medium
