Question
If `bar"u" = hat"i" - 2hat"j" + hat"k" , bar"v" = 3hat"i" + hat"k"` and `bar"w" = hat"j" - hat"k"` are given vectors, then find `[bar"u" xx bar"v" bar"u" xx bar"w" bar"v" xx bar"w"]`

Solution
`bar"u" xx bar"v" = |(hat"i",hat"j",hat"k"),(1, -2, 1),(3, 0, 1)|`
`= (- 2 - 0)hat"i" - (1 - 3)hat"j" + (0 + 6)hat"k"`
`= - 2hat"i" + 2hat"j" + 6hat"k"`
`bar"u" xx bar"w" = |(hat"i",hat"j",hat"k"),(1, -2, 1),(0, 1, -1)|`
`= (2 - 1)hat"i" - (-1 - 0)hat"j" + (1 - 0)hat"k"`
`= hat"i" + hat"j" + hat"k"`
`bar"v" xx bar"w" = |(hat"i",hat"j",hat"k"),(3,0,1),(0,1,-1)|`
`= (0 - 1)hat"i" - (- 3 - 0)hat"j" + (3 - 0)hat"k"`
`= -hat"i" + 3hat"j" + 3hat"k"`
Now, `[bar"u" xx bar"v" bar"u" xx bar"w" bar"v" xx bar"w"] = |(-2, 2, 6),(1, 1, 1),(-1, 3, 3)|`
= −2(3 − 3) − 2(3 + 1) + 6(3 + 1)
= 0 − 8 + 24
= 16
