Question
When $\vec A.\vec B = - |A||B|,$ then
✓
Answer
(c) $\overrightarrow A .\overrightarrow B = AB\cos \theta $
In the problem $\overrightarrow A .\overrightarrow B = - AB$ i.e. $\cos \theta = - 1$
$\theta = 180^\circ $
i.e. $\overrightarrow A $ and $\overrightarrow B $ acts in the opposite direction.
