Let $\vec{a}=\hat{i}+\hat{j}-\hat{k}$ and $\vec{c}=2 \hat{i}-3 \hat{j}+2 \hat{k}$. Then the number of vectors $\vec{b}$ such that $\vec{b} \times \vec{c}=\vec{a}$ and $|\vec{b}| \in\{1, 2, \ldots, 10\}$ is

If $\overrightarrow{a}=\hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k}$, $\overrightarrow{b}=\hat{i}+\hat{j}$, $\overrightarrow{c}=\hat{i}$ and $(\overrightarrow{a} \times \overrightarrow{b}) \times \overrightarrow{c}=\lambda \overrightarrow{a}+\mu \overrightarrow{b}$, then $\lambda+\mu$ is equal to:

If $\vec{a}, \vec{b}, \vec{c}$ are the position vectors of the vertices of a triangle,show that $\frac{1}{2}[\vec{b} \times \vec{c}+\vec{c} \times \vec{a}+\vec{a} \times \vec{b}]$ gives the vector area of the triangle. Hence,deduce the condition that the three points $\vec{a}, \vec{b}, \vec{c}$ are collinear. Also,find the unit vector normal to the plane of the triangle.
