Solution

The correct option is A 3(i+j+k)
The equation of ON is r=λ(i+j+k) ...(1)
Since it passes through the origin and is parallel to the vector (i+j+k), any point on it is λ(i+j+k).
If this point lies on the plane r.(i+j+k)=33,
then λ(i+j+k).(i+j+k)=33
λ(1+1+1)=33
λ=3
Putting the value of λ in (1), we get the position vector N
i.e. center of the circle as 3(i+j+k)
