Question

What is the vector product of two parallel vectors?

Answer 1

Step 1 : Cross product :

1. It is the method of multiplication of two vectors.
2. It is a binary vector operation in a 3D system.
3. The cross product of two vectors is the third vector that is perpendicular to the two original vectors.

Step 2 : Explanation :

The cross product of two vector $A$ and $B$ is :

$A\times B=\left|A\right|\left|B\right|Sin\theta$.

If $A$ and $B$ are parallel to each other, then $\theta =0$.

So the cross product of two parallel vectors is zero.
