JEE Main 26 February 2021, Shift 2, Physics Q17

Question 17 of 90 in this shift, Physics question 17 of 30, Section A.

The incident ray, reflected ray and the outward drawn normal are denoted by the unit vectors a⃗\vec{a}, b⃗\vec{b} and c⃗\vec{c} respectively. Then choose the correct relation for these vectors.
  1. (1)b⃗=a⃗−c⃗\vec{b} = \vec{a} - \vec{c}
  2. (2)b⃗=a⃗−2(a⃗⋅c⃗)c⃗\vec{b} = \vec{a} - 2(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{c})\vec{c}Official answer
  3. (3)b⃗=a⃗+2c⃗\vec{b} = \vec{a} + 2\vec{c}
  4. (4)b⃗=2a⃗+c⃗\vec{b} = 2\vec{a} + \vec{c}
