Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 3

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( 4|\overline{\mathrm{~b}}|=|\overline{\mathrm{c}}|=2 \implies |\overline{\mathrm{~b}}|=\frac{1}{2}, |\overline{\mathrm{c}}|=2 \) \( \bar{b} \cdot \bar{c} = |\bar{b}||\bar{c}|\cos\left(\frac{2\pi}{3}\right) = \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)(2)\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right) = -\frac{1}{2} \)
