Concepts Of Physics MCQ Edition [Volume 1]PhysicsPhysics and Mathematics
Two vectors possess magnitudes of 2 m and 3 m . The angle between them is 60^ . Determine the magnitude of their vector product.
Options
- A6 3 m ^2
- B3 m ^2
- C3 3 m ^2
- D6 m ^2
Correct answer
C. 3 3 m ^2
Step-by-step solution
The magnitude of the vector product of two vectors A and B is given by | A B | = | A | | B | . Given | A | = 2 m , | B | = 3 m , and = 60^ . Substituting the values: | A B | = 2 3 60^ | A B | = 6 3 2 = 3 3 m ^2
