$A$ vector $\vec{a}$ has components $2p$ and $1$ with respect to a rectangular Cartesian system. The system is rotated through a certain angle about the origin in the anti-clockwise sense. If $\vec{a}$ has components $p+1$ and $1$ with respect to the new system,then:

  • A
    $p = 0$
  • B
    $p = 1$ or $p = -\frac{1}{3}$
  • C
    $p = -1$ or $p = \frac{1}{3}$
  • D
    $p = 1$ or $p = -1$
