JEE Mains · Maths · STD 12 - 10. vector algebra
For any vector \(\vec{a}=a_1 \hat{i}+a_2 \hat{j}+a_3 \hat{k}\), with \(10\left|a_i\right|<1, i=1,2,3\), consider the following statements: \((A)\): \(\max \left\{\left|a_1\right|,\left|a_2\right|,\left|a_3\right|\right\} \leq|\vec{a}|\) \((B)\): \(|\vec{a}| \leq 3 \max \left\{\left| a _1\right|,\left| a _2\right|,\left| a _3\right|\right\}\)
- A Only \((B)\) is true
- B Only \((A)\) is true
- C Neither \((A)\) nor \((B)\) is true
- D Both \((A)\) and \((B)\) are true
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) Both \((A)\) and \((B)\) are true
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Without loss of generality Let \(\left|a_1\right| \leq\left|a_2\right| \leq\left|a_3\right|\) \(|\vec{a}|^2=\left|a_1\right|^2+\left|a_2\right|^2+\left|a_3\right|^2 \geq\left(a_3\right)^2\)…
