The vector i^ + xj^ + 3k^ is rotated through an angle θ and doubled in magnitude, then it becomes 4i^ + 4x - 2j^ + 2k^. The value of x is

  • - 23, 2

  • 13, 2

  • 23, 0

  • {2, 7}


A.

- 23, 2

We have, 2i^ + xj^ + 3k^= 4i^ + 4x - 2j^ + 2k^ 21 + x2 + 9 = 42 + 4x - 22 + 22 4x2 + 10 = 16 + 16x2 + 4 - 16x + 4    12x2 - 16x - 16 = 0          3x2 - 4x - 4 = 0 3x2 - 6x + 2x - 4 = 0       3x +2x - 2 = 0                     x = 2, - 23Hence, option (a) - 23, 2 is correct.
