MCQ
The value of $(\overrightarrow A + \overrightarrow B )\, \times (\overrightarrow A - \overrightarrow B )$ is
  • A
    $0$
  • B
    ${A^2} - {B^2}$
  • C
    $\overrightarrow B \times \overrightarrow A $
  • $2(\overrightarrow B \times \overrightarrow A )$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$2(\overrightarrow B \times \overrightarrow A )$
d
(d)$(\vec A + \vec B) \times (\vec A - \vec B)$

$ = \vec A \times \vec A - \vec A \times \vec B + \vec B \times \vec A - \vec B \times \vec B$

$ = 0 - \vec A \times \vec B + \vec B \times \vec A - 0$

$ = \vec B \times \vec A + \vec B \times \vec A = 2(\vec B \times \vec A)$
