Let \(\vec{a}, \vec{b}\) and \(\vec{c}\) be three vectors such that \(|\vec{a}|=2,|\vec{b}|=3,|\vec{c}|=5\) and each one of three vectors is perpendicular to the sum of the other two, then value of \(|\vec{a}+\vec{b}+\vec{c}|\) is

  1. A \(\sqrt{32}\)
  2. B \(\sqrt{38}\)
  3. C \(\sqrt{37}\)
  4. D \(\sqrt{31}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\sqrt{38}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

From the given conditions: \(\vec{a} \cdot (\vec{b}+\vec{c}) = 0\), \(\vec{b} \cdot (\vec{a}+\vec{c}) = 0\), \(\vec{c} \cdot (\vec{a}+\vec{b}) = 0\) Summing these dot products: \(2(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b} + \vec{b} \cdot \vec{c} + \vec{c} \cdot \vec{a}) = 0\)…
