If \(\overrightarrow{ x }\) and \(\overrightarrow{ y }\) be two non-zero vectors such that \(|\overrightarrow{ x }+\overrightarrow{ y }|=|\overrightarrow{ x }|\) and \(2 \overrightarrow{ x }+\lambda \overrightarrow{ y }\) is perpendicular to \(\overrightarrow{ y },\) then the value of \(\lambda\) is

  1. A \(1\)
  2. B \(3\)
  3. C \(4\)
  4. D \(2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(|\vec{x}+\vec{y}|=|\vec{x}|\) \(\sqrt{|\overrightarrow{ x }|^{2}+|\overrightarrow{ y }|^{2}+2 \overrightarrow{ x } \cdot \overrightarrow{ y }}=|\overrightarrow{ x }|\) \(|\overrightarrow{ y }|^{2}+2 \overrightarrow{ x } \cdot \overrightarrow{ y }=0\) Now…
