Question

If cross product of vectors A×B is along y-axis then vectors A and B are present in which plane?

Answer 1

Answer:

these vectors are said to be in (x-z) plane

Explanation:

as the cross product of two vectors is always nornal to their plane

Answer 2

Answer:

Vectors A and B are in the x and z plane respectively or vice versa.

Explanation:

• A physical quantity with both magnitude and direction is referred to be a vector.
• A vector can be visualised geometrically as a directed line segment, with an arrow pointing in the direction and a length equal to the magnitude of the vector.
• The vector points in a direction from its tail to its head. In three dimensions, the cross product is a binary operation on two vectors.
• It produces a vector that intersects both vectors at right angles. A B stands for the vector product of two vectors, a and b.
• The resulting vector is parallel to both a and b.

Vectors A and B are thus present on the x and z planes.
