Let a b =7 i -5 j -4 k and a = i +3 j -2 k . If the length of projection of b on a is 8 14 , then | b |=
Options
- A121
- B12
- C11
- D144
Correct answer
C. 11
Step-by-step solution
Since, length of projection of b on a is 8 14 | a b | | a | = 8 14 Now, a b = a b | a | = 7 i -5 j -4 k 1+9+4 = 7 i -5 j -4 k 14 Since, | a b |^2+| a b |^2=| b |^2| a |^2 | b |^2= 154 14 | b |= 11
