Correct Answer - Option 3 : 2
Concept:
Let the two vectors be \(\rm \overrightarrow{a}\) and \(\rm \overrightarrow{b}\) then
The dot product of two vectors is given by: \(\rm \overrightarrow{a} . \overrightarrow{b} = |a||b| \cosθ\)
The cross product of the two vectors is given by: \(\rm \overrightarrow{a} × \overrightarrow{b} = |a||b| \sinθ\)
Where \(\rm {|\vec a|}\)= Magnitude of vectors a and \(\rm {|\vec b|}\) = Magnitude of vectors b and θ is the angle between a and b.
Trigonometric identities: sin2 θ + cos2 θ = 1
Calculation:
The given equation is,
\(\rm |\vec{a}× \vec{b}|^2 + |\vec{a}\cdot \vec{b}|^2=100\) this can be simplified as,
⇒ \(\rm {|\vec a|}^2 {|\vec b|}^2\)sin2 θ + \(\rm {|\vec a|}^2 {|\vec b|}^2\)cos2 θ = 100
⇒ \(\rm {|\vec a|}^2 {|\vec b|}^2\) [sin2 θ + cos2 θ] = 100
⇒ \(\rm {|\vec a|}^2 {|\vec b|}^2\) = 100
⇒ 25 × \(\rm {|\vec b|}^2\) = 100
⇒ \(\rm {|\vec b|}^2\) = 4
∴ \(\rm {|\vec b|}\) = ± 2
So, \(\rm {|\vec b|}\) = 2
