Two vectors A\overset{\rightarrow}{A} and B\overset{\rightarrow}{B} are at right angles to each other, when

A

(a) A+B=0\overset{\rightarrow}{A} + \overset{\rightarrow}{B} = 0

A

(b) AB=0\overset{\rightarrow}{A} - \overset{\rightarrow}{B} = 0

A

(c) A×B=0\overset{\rightarrow}{A} \times \overset{\rightarrow}{B} = 0

A

(d) A.B=0\overset{\rightarrow}{A}.\overset{\rightarrow}{B} = 0

Explanation

Solution

(d)

Sol. A.B=A.B.cosθ=A.B.cos90=0\overrightarrow{A}.\overrightarrow{B} = |\overrightarrow{A}|.|\overrightarrow{B}|.\cos\theta = \overrightarrow{A}.\overrightarrow{B}.\cos 90{^\circ} = 0
