MCQ

Solution

1

Explanation:

`|hati, hatj, hatk|` are the perpendicular unit vectors, we know,

∴ `hati xx hatj = hatk, hatj, hatk = hati, hatk xx hati = hatj`

And `hati * hatj` = 1, `hatj * hatj` = 1 and `hatk * hatk` = 1

⇒ `hati * (hatj xx hatk) + hatj * (hati xx hatk) + hatk * (hati * hatj)`

= `hati * (hatj xx hatk) - hatj * (hatk xx hati) + hatk * (hati xx hatj)` .......`[because hati xx hatk = - hatk xx hati]`

= `hati * hati - hatj * hatj + hatk * hatk`

= 1 + 1 + 1

= 1
