Solution

The correct option is C 0
Let
V=OAsin2A+OBsin2B+OCsin2C
Taking dot product with OA, we get
VOA=OAOAsin2A+OBOAsin2B+OCOBsin2C ....(1)

Now OBOA=R2cos2C
Similarly,
OCOA=R2cos2B
and OAOA=R2

Putting values in eqn (1)

VOA=R2sin2A+R2cos2Csin2B+R2cos2Bsin2C
R2sin2A+R2sin(2B+2C) ...(2)

Now A+B+C=π
2A+2B+2C=2π
sin(2B+2C)=sin(2π2A)=sin2A
Putting this value in (2)
VOA=0V=0 or VOA
Similarly,
VOB=0V=0 or VOB
VOC=0V=0 or VOC

V=λ1OA+λ2OB+λ3OC
V is coplanar and
V is to OB,OB,OC
Which is not possible
So V=0
