Question:

Two vectors are given by $\vec{A}=\left(3\hat{i} +\hat{j}+3\hat{k}\right)$ and $ \vec{B}=\left(3\hat{i} +5\hat{j}-2\hat{k}\right)$. Find the third vector $\vec{C}$ if $\vec{A}+3\vec{B}-\vec{C}=0.$

  • $\left(12 \hat{i}+14 \hat{j}+12 \hat{k}\right)$
  • $\left(13 \hat{i}+17 \hat{j}+12 \hat{k}\right)$
  • $\left(12 \hat{i}+16 \hat{j}-3 \hat{k}\right)$
  • $\left(15 \hat{i}+13 \hat{j}+4 \hat{k}\right)$

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

$\vec{A}+3\vec{B}-\vec{C}=0$
$3\hat{i}+\hat{j}+3\hat{k}+3\left(3 \hat{i}+5\hat{j}-2 \hat{k}\right)-\vec{C}=0$
$12 \hat{i}+16 \hat{j}-3 \hat{k}-\vec{C}=0$,
$ \vec{C}=12 \hat{i}+16 \hat{j}-3 \hat{k}$

Concepts Used:

Motion in a Plane

It is a vector quantity. A vector quantity is a quantity having both magnitude and direction. Speed is a scalar quantity and it is a quantity having a magnitude only. Motion in a plane is also known as motion in two dimensions. 

Equations of Plane Motion

The equations of motion in a straight line are:

v=u+at

s=ut+½ at2

v2-u2=2as

Where,

  • v = final velocity of the particle
  • u = initial velocity of the particle
  • s = displacement of the particle
  • a = acceleration of the particle
  • t = the time interval in which the particle is in consideration
