    If\[\overrightarrow{a}=-\hat{i}+2\hat{j}-\hat{k},\overrightarrow{b}=\hat{i}+\hat{j}-3\hat{k}\]and \[\vec{c}=-4\hat{i}-\hat{k},\]then\[\overrightarrow{a}\times (\overrightarrow{b}\times \overrightarrow{c})+(\overrightarrow{a}.\overrightarrow{b}).\overrightarrow{c}\] :

    A)  \[5\hat{i}+5\hat{j}-15\hat{k}\]

    B)  0

    C)  \[12\hat{j}+4\hat{k}\]                 

    D)         \[-3\hat{i}+6\hat{j}-3\hat{k}\]

    E)  \[7\hat{i}-7\hat{j}-19\hat{k}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[\overrightarrow{a}=-\hat{i}+2\hat{j}-\hat{k},\] \[\overrightarrow{b}=\hat{i}+\hat{j}-3\hat{k},\overrightarrow{c}=4\hat{i}-\hat{k}\] \[\therefore \]\[\overrightarrow{a}\times (\overrightarrow{b}\times \overrightarrow{c})+(\overrightarrow{a}.\overrightarrow{b})\overrightarrow{c}=(\overrightarrow{a}.\overrightarrow{c})\overrightarrow{b}\]                                 \[=(4+1)(\hat{i}+\hat{j}-3\hat{k})\]                                 \[=5(\hat{i}+\hat{j}-3\hat{k})\]                                 \[=5\hat{i}+5\hat{j}-15\hat{k}\]
