Vector product of two parallel vectors is a null vector.

Vedclass · Answer

(C) The vector product of two vectors $\overrightarrow{A}$ and $\overrightarrow{B}$ is defined as $\overrightarrow{C} = \overrightarrow{A} 	imes \overrightarrow{B} = AB \sin 	heta \hat{n}$.For two parallel vectors,the angle $	heta$ between them is $0^\circ$.Substituting this into the formula: $\overrightarrow{A} 	imes \overrightarrow{B} = AB \sin(0^\circ) \hat{n} = AB(0) \hat{n} = \vec{0}$.Thus,the vector product of two parallel vectors is a null vector.Therefore,option $(C)$ is correct.
