JEE Mains · Maths · STD 12 - 10. vector algebra

Let \(\vec{a}=\hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+3 \hat{k}, \vec{b}=3 \hat{i}+\hat{j}-\hat{k}\) and \(\vec{c}\) be three vectors such that \(\vec{c}\) is coplanar with \(\vec{a}\) and \(\vec{b}\). If the vector \(\vec{C}\) is perpendicular to \(\vec{b}\) and \(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{c}=5\), then \(|\vec{c}|\) is equal to

  1. A \(\sqrt{\frac{11}{6}}\)
  2. B \(\frac{1}{3 \sqrt{2}}\)
  3. C \(16\)
  4. D \(18\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\sqrt{\frac{11}{6}}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\begin{aligned} & \overrightarrow{\mathrm{c}}=\lambda(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}} \times(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}})) \\ & =\lambda((\overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}} \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}})…
