उत्तर
If \[\vec{A} \times \vec{B} = 0\], then both the vectors are either parallel or antiparallel, i.e., the angle between the vectors is either \[0^\circ \text { or } 180^\circ\].
\[\vec{A} \vec{ B } \sin\ \theta \ \hat { n } = 0.......\left(\because \sin0^\circ= \sin180^\circ = 0\right)\]
Both the conditions can be satisfied:
(a) \[\vec{A} = \vec{B} ,\] i.e., the two vectors are equal in magnitude and parallel to each other
(b) \[\vec{A} ≠ \vec{B} ,\] i.e., the two vectors are unequal in magnitude and parallel or anti parallel to each other.

Some of the most profound statements on the nature of science have come from Albert Einstein, one of the greatest scientists of all time. What do you think did Einstein mean when he said : “The most incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is comprehensible”?
India has had a long and unbroken tradition of great scholarship — in mathematics, astronomy, linguistics, logic and ethics. Yet, in parallel with this, several superstitious and obscurantistic attitudes and practices flourished in our society and unfortunately continue even today — among many educated people too. How will you use your knowledge of science to develop strategies to counter these attitudes ?
