Vedclass · Answer

(C) The cross product of two vectors $\vec A$ and $\vec B$ is defined as $\vec A 	imes \vec B = AB \sin 	heta \, \hat{n}$,where $	heta$ is the angle between the vectors and $\hat{n}$ is a unit vector perpendicular to the plane containing $\vec A$ and $\vec B$.If two vectors are parallel,the angle $	heta$ between them is $0^\circ$.Since $\sin(0^\circ) = 0$,the magnitude of the cross product becomes $AB \sin(0^\circ) = 0$.The cross product of two vectors is a vector quantity. Therefore,the result of the cross product of two parallel vectors is the zero vector,denoted by $\vec{0}$.

If a vector $\vec A$ is parallel to another vector $\vec B$,then the resultant of the vector $\vec A \times \vec B$ will be equal to
