Question
If $\vec{A} \cdot \vec{B}=\vec{A} \cdot \vec{C}$, then should $\vec{B}$ and $\vec{C}$ be equal?

Answer

Generally not, but if angle between $\vec{A}$ and $\vec{B}$ is equal to angle between $\vec{A}$ and $\vec{C}$ then $\vec{B}=\vec{C}$

A LASER is a source of very intense, monochromatic, and unidirectional beam of light. These properties of a laser light can be exploited to measure long distances. The distance of the Moon from the Earth has been already determined very precisely using a laser as a source of light. A laser light beamed at the Moon takes 2.56s to return after reflection at the Moon’s surface. How much is the radius of the lunar orbit around the Earth?
