Q38 / 90 · JEE Main 2021 (22 Jul Shift 1) · Mathematics
Let three vectors and be such that and Then which one of the following is not true?
- A
- BProjection of on is
- C
- Correct answerD
Solution
The first option is
But, we know that
Given,
Hence, the option is correct.
For the second option, we have
Projection of on is
Using, we get
Hence, the option is correct.
For the third option, we have
We know that and
Hence, the option is correct.
For the fourth option, we have
and
are mutually perpendicular vectors.
Also,
On putting the value from equation we get
and
The vectors are mutually perpendicular to each other, hence
Hence, the option is not correct.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
