MCQ
If $a,b,c$  are vectors such that  $[abc\,]=4$   , then $[a\times b\,\,b\times c\,\,c\times a]$  =  
  • $16$
  • B
    $64$
  • C
    $4$
  • D
    $8$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$16$
a
(a) $[a \times b\,\,b\, \times c\,\,c \times a] = (a \times b)\,.\,[(b \times c) \times (c \times a)]$

$ = (a \times b)\,.\,(\,[b\,c\,a]\,c - [b\,c\,c]\,a)$$ = (a \times b)\,.\,(\,[b\,c\,a]\,c - 0)$

$ = [b\,c\,a]\,[a\,b\,c] = [a\,b\,c]\,[a\,b\,c] = 4.4 = 16.$
