The magnitude of the projection of the vector 2i^+3j^+k^ on the vector perpendicular to the plane containing the vectors i^+j^+k^ and i^+2j^+3k^, is:
  1.  36
  2.  32
  3. 6
  4.  32

Solution

Vector perpendicular to i^+j^+k^ and i^+2j^+3k^

=i^j^k^111123=i^-2j^+k^

Required projection

=|(2i^+3j^+k^)(i^-2j^+k^)||i^-2j^+k^|

=|2-6+1|6=36=32
