Answer:
for a vector to be parallel to the xy plane it z component has to be equal to 0 and the vector only has x and y component.
Let the vector be ai + bj
As the vector is perpendicular to the given vector the dot product of two vectors has to be equal to zero.
Therefore (ai + bj).(4i-3j+k) =0
4a-3b=0
Substituting a = 1 we get b= 4/3
i +(4÷3)j
is one such vector and there can be infinite number of vectors satisfying the given condition
