MCQ
If the vectors $3 \hat{i}+\lambda \hat{j}+\hat{k}$ and $2 \hat{i}-\hat{j}+8 \hat{k}$ are perpendicular, then $\lambda$ is equal to
  • A
    $7$
  • B
    $-14$
  • C
    $1/7$
  • $14$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$14$
given vectors $3 \hat{i}+\lambda \hat{j}+\hat{k}$ and $2 \hat{i}-\hat{j}+8 \hat{k}$ are perpendicular to each other
$ \Longrightarrow(3 \hat{i}+\lambda \hat{j}+\hat{k}) \cdot(2 \hat{i}-\hat{j}+8 \hat{k})=0$
$\Longrightarrow 6-\lambda+8=0$
$\Longrightarrow \lambda=14$

When a certain biased die is rolled, a particular face occurs with probability $\frac{1}{6}-\mathrm{x}$ and its opposite face occurs with probability $\frac{1}{6}+\mathrm{x}$. All other faces occur with probability $\frac{1}{6}$. Note that opposite faces sum to $7$ in any die. If $0\,<\,x\,<\,\frac{1}{6}$, and the probability of obtaining total $\mathrm{sum}=7$, when such a die is rolled twice, is $\frac{13}{96}$, then the value of $x$ is:
