Question
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

Answer

$(d) 14$
Explanation: 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$
$\Longrightarrow 6-\lambda+8=0 \Longrightarrow \lambda=14$
