MCQ
${(r\,.\,i)^2} + {(r\,.\,j)^2} + {(r\,.\,k)^2} = $
  • A
    $3{r^2}$
  • ${r^2}$
  • C
    $0$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: B.
${r^2}$
b
(b) Let $r = xi + yj + zk$ $ \Rightarrow r\,.\,i = x,$ $r\,.\,j = y,$ $r\,.\,k = z$

$ \Rightarrow {(r\,.\,i)^2} + {(r\,.\,j)^2} + {(r\,.\,k)^2} = {x^2} + {y^2} + {z^2} = {r^2}.$
