Three particlesP, QandRare moving along the vectorsA=i^+j^,  B=j^+k^andC=-i^+j^, respectively. They strike on a point and start to move in different directions. Now particlePis moving normal to the plane which contains vectorAandB.Similarly particleQis moving normal to the plane which contains vectorAandC.The angle between the direction of motion ofPandQiscos-11x.Then the value ofxis        .

Answer:
3.00
Solution:

Direction of P, v^1=±A×B|A×B|=±i^-j^+k^3

Direction of Q, v^2=±A×C|A×C|=±2k^2=±k^

Angle between v^1 and v^2,

v^1·v^2v^1v^2=±13(1)(1)=±13

x=3
