(a) \[\vec{A} = \vec{B} ,\]
(b) \[\vec{A} \neq \vec{B}\] ?

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.

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 ?
