Three Dimensional Geometry Question 346
Question: The intercept made by the plane $ \vec{r}\cdot \vec{n}=q $ on the x-axis is
Options:
A) $ \frac{q}{\hat{i}\cdot \vec{n}} $
B) $ \frac{\hat{i}\cdot \vec{n}}{q} $
C) $ \frac{\hat{i}\cdot \vec{n}}{q} $
D) $ \frac{q}{| {\vec{n}} |} $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
[a] x intercept is say $ x_1, $ i.e., the plane passes through it. Therefore, $ x_1\hat{i}\cdot \vec{n}=q $ or $ x_1=\frac{q}{\hat{i}\cdot \vec{n}} $
