Find the indicated cross product.
-v = 2i + 2j, w = -3i - 5j + 5k Find v × w.
A) 10i - 10j - 4k
B) 25i - 15j - 11k
C) 10i - 10j - 16k
D) -4i - 10j + 10k

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The cross product of two vectors is a vector that is perpendicular to both of the original vectors. The direction of the cross product is determined by the right-hand rule. In this case, the cross product of v and w is:v × w = (2i + 2j) × (-3i - 5j + 5k)= -10i - 10j - 4k
