Find the volume of parallelepiped (in m3) whose edges are represented by a=(2i^3j^+4k^)m,b=(i^+2j^k^)m  and c=(3i^j^+2k^)m

Moderate
Solution

 The volume of parallelepiped is |a(b×c)|

=|(2i~3j~+4k~){(i~+2j~k~)×3i~j~+2k~}|=(2i^3j^+4k^)i^j^k^121312=(2i~3j~+4k~){(41)j~(2+3)+k~(16)}=|(2i^3j^+4k^)(3i^5j^7k^)|=|6+1528|=7m3
