Solution

The correct option is A

1 is true 2 is true and 2 is the correct explanation of 1


Consider an area as shown,

Now if we have assigned, |ΔS|=length of arrow

= 5 units

As clearly shown, surface ΔS lying on a x – z plane can have 2 possible normal r to it, one towards +y and the other one pointing – y.

Learning: Both directions will lie along the same axis but facing away. Mathematically it implies that both vectors will have opposite signs.

e.g. ^B=^A
