Solution

The correct option is C
$\sqrt{59}$

Given $\to V = 2^i +^j -^k$ and $\to W =^i + 3^k$
$[\to U \to V \to W] = \to U . [(2^i +^j -^k) \times (^i + 3^k)] \to U . (3^i - 7^j -^k) = | \to U | | 3^i - 7^j -^k | cos θ$
which is maximum, if angle between $\to U$ and $3^i - 7^j -^k$ is 0 and maximum value
$= | 3^i - 7^j -^k | = \sqrt{59}$
