Correct answer
D. zero
Step-by-step solution
$\hat{\mathbf{n}}\overrightarrow{\mathbf{A}} and \overrightarrow{\mathbf{B}}(\overrightarrow{\mathbf{B}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathbf{A}}) \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathbf{A}}(\overrightarrow{\mathbf{B}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathbf{A}}) \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathbf{A}}=\overrightarrow{\mathbf{B}} \cdot(\overrightarrow{\mathbf{A}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathbf{A}})=0 \quad(\because \overrightarrow{\mathbf{A}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathbf{A}}=0)\overrightarrow{\mathbf{A}}, \overrightarrow{\mathbf{A}} and \overrightarrow{\mathbf{A}}(\overrightarrow{\mathbf{A}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathbf{A}}) \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathbf{A}}$
