Let a → and b → be two vectors. Let | a → | = 1 , | b → | = 4 and a → · b…

Let aand b be two vectors. Let |a|=1,|b|=4 and a·b=2. If c=(2a×b)-3b, then the value of b·c is
  1. -24
  2. -48
  3. -84
  4. -60

Solution

Given,

aand b be two vectors, where |a|=1,|b|=4 and a·b=2,

Now given, c=2a×b-3b

So, b·c=b·2a×b-3b·b

b·c=-3|b|2 as b2ab=0 or b·2a×b=0

b·c=-48
