Vedclass · Answer

(C) Given,$x = \hat{i} + \hat{j}$ and $y = 3\hat{i} - 2\hat{k}$.The conditions are $r 	imes x = y 	imes x$ and $r 	imes y = x 	imes y$.From $r 	imes x = y 	imes x$,we have $(r - y) 	imes x = 0$,which implies that $(r - y)$ is parallel to $x$.Thus,$r - y = \lambda x$,or $r = y + \lambda x$.Substituting the vectors: $r = (3\hat{i} - 2\hat{k}) + \lambda(\hat{i} + \hat{j}) = (3 + \lambda)\hat{i} + \lambda\hat{j} - 2\hat{k}$.Given the magnitude $|r| = \sqrt{21}$,we have $|r|^2 = 21$.$(3 + \lambda)^2 + \lambda^2 + (-2)^2 = 21$.$9 + 6\lambda + \lambda^2 + \lambda^2 + 4 = 21$.$2\lambda^2 + 6\lambda + 13 = 21 \Rightarrow 2\lambda^2 + 6\lambda - 8 = 0$.Dividing by $2$: $\lambda^2 + 3\lambda - 4 = 0$.$(\lambda + 4)(\lambda - 1) = 0$,so $\lambda = 1$ or $\lambda = -4$.For $\lambda = 1$,$r = (3 + 1)\hat{i} + 1\hat{j} - 2\hat{k} = 4\hat{i} + \hat{j} - 2\hat{k}$.Checking the second condition $r 	imes y = x 	imes y$: $(r - x) 	imes y = 0$,so $r - x$ must be parallel to $y$.For $r = 4\hat{i} + \hat{j} - 2\hat{k}$,$r - x = (4\hat{i} + \hat{j} - 2\hat{k}) - (\hat{i} + \hat{j}) = 3\hat{i} - 2\hat{k} = y$. Since $y$ is parallel to $y$,this is correct.

Let $x = \hat{i} + \hat{j}$ and $y = 3\hat{i} - 2\hat{k}$. Then,the vector $r$ of magnitude $\sqrt{21}$ satisfying $r \times x = y \times x$ and $r \times y = x \times y$ is
