Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\overrightarrow{ A }=(2 \hat{ i }+3 \hat{ j }-\hat{ k }) m \text { and } \overrightarrow{ B }=(\hat{ i }+2 \hat{ j }+2 \hat{ k }) m\)

Component of \(\overrightarrow{ A }\) along \(\overrightarrow{ B }=\overrightarrow{ A } \cdot \hat{ B }\)

\(=\frac{\overrightarrow{ A } \overrightarrow{ B }}{|\overrightarrow{ B }|}\) \(=\frac{2+6-2}{\sqrt{1^{2}+2^{2}+2^{2}}}\)

\(=\frac{6}{3}=2\)
