It is zero.
Let P and Q be mutually perpendicular so their dot product would be equal to ->

PQcos90=PQ(0) => 0

Hope it helps.

the dot product of the vector can be represented by this,
a•b = |a||b| cosθ

and here the situation is that both vectors are mutually perpendicular to each other,
therefore, angle between them is 90°
hence, θ = 90°

therefore, a•b = |a||b| cos90°
a•b = |a||b| (0)
a•b = 0
hence, the dot product of two mutually perpendicular vector will be ZERO.
