`vecl=vecrxxvecp=|[hati,hatj,hatk],[1,2,-1],[3,4,-2]|=-hatj-2hatk`
Correct Answer – a
Here, `vecr=hati+2hatj-hatk, vecp=3hati+4hatj-2hatk`
`vecL= vecr xx vecp= |{:[hati, hatj, hatk],[1,2,-1],[3,4,-2]:}|=hati(-4+4)+hatj(-3+2)+hatk(4-6)=0hati-1hatj-2hatk`
`vecL` has component along `-y` axis and `-z` axis but it has no component along the x-axis. The angular momentum `vecL` is in yz-plane. i.e., perpendicular to x-axis.
Correct Answer – A
