Question

Vectors a\=4i^−2j^ and b\=3i^+5j^ are given. What is the direction of a×b?

Options

Choose one · Correct answer highlighted

Explanation

a×b = |i^j^k^4−20350| = k^(4×5−(−2)×3) = k^(20+6) = 26k^. Direction is along the positive z-axis (k^). As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to k^. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option D is scientifically correct.
