MCQ
If a vector $\vec A$ is parallel to another vector $\vec B$ then the resultant of the vector $\vec A \times \vec B$ will be equal to
  • A
    $A$
  • B
    $\vec A$
  • Zero vector
  • D
    Zero

Answer

Correct option: C.
Zero vector
c
(c) $\overrightarrow A \times \overrightarrow B = AB\sin \theta \,\hat n$

for parallel vectors $\theta = 0^\circ $ or $180^\circ $, $\sin \theta = 0$

$\therefore $ $\overrightarrow A \times \overrightarrow B = \hat 0$

This question has Statement $1$ and Statement $2.$ Of the four choices given after the Statements, choose the one that best describes the two Statements.

Statement $1:$ A metallic surface is irradiated by a monochromatic light of frequency $v > v_0$ (the threshold frequency). If the incident frequency is now doubled, the photocurrent and the maximum kinetic energy are also doubled.

Statement $2:$ The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted from a surface is linearly dependent on the frequency of the incident light. The photocurrent depends only on the intensity of the incident light.
