Solution
The correct option is B b) Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true , Statement-2 is a correct explanation for statement-1 The scalar product of any two vectors →A and →B is given by →A.→B=ABcosθ where θ is angle between →A and →B.
Now, when two vectors are perpendicular to each other then θ=900 which implies →A.→B=ABcos900=0.
Therefore, statement 1 and 2 are true statement 2 is explanation of statement 1.
