    If\[|\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{a}}}\,|\,\,=\,\,|\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{b}}}\,|\,\,=\,\,|\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{c}}}\,|\,\,=1\]and\[\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{a}}}\,+\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{b}}}\,+\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{c}}}\,=0\], then the value of\[\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{a}}}\,\cdot \overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{b}}}\,+\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{b}}}\,\cdot \overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{c}}}\,+\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{c}}}\,\cdot \overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{a}}}\,\]is:

    A) \[0\]                                     

    B) \[-1\]

    C) \[-\frac{3}{2}\]                                 

    D) \[3\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Given that,         \[|\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{a}}}\,|\,\,=\,\,|\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{b}}}\,|\,\,=\,\,|\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{c}}}\,|\,\,=1\] and        \[\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{a}}}\,+\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{b}}}\,+\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{c}}}\,=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{(\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{a}}}\,+\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{b}}}\,+\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{c}}}\,)}^{2}}=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[|\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{a}}}\,{{|}^{2}}+|\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{b}}}\,{{|}^{2}}+|\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{c}}}\,{{|}^{2}}\] \[+2(\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{a}}}\,\cdot \overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{b}}}\,+\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{b}}}\,\cdot \overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{c}}}\,+\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{c}}}\,\cdot \overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{a}}}\,)=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[1+1+1+2(\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{a}}}\,\cdot \overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{b}}}\,+\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{b}}}\,\cdot \overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{c}}}\,+\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{c}}}\,\cdot \overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{a}}}\,)=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{a}}}\,\cdot \overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{b}}}\,+\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{b}}}\,\cdot \overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{c}}}\,+\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{c}}}\,\cdot \overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{a}}}\,=-\frac{3}{2}\]
