Answer:

First vector

V=+ \dfrac{-15i+12j+4k}{\sqrt{385}}

Second vector

V=- \dfrac{-15i+12j+4k}{\sqrt{385}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Vector a , a= 4 i + 5 j + 0 k

Vector b , b= 0 i + 1 j - 3 k

The orthogonal vector V is given as

V = a x b

V is the cross product of the above two vector which is orthogonal to the vectors a and b.

V=\begin{vmatrix}i & j & k\\ 4 & 5 & 0\\  0& 1 &-3 \end{vmatrix}\\V=i(-15-0)-j(-12-0)+k(4-0)\\V=-15i+12j+4k

The unit vectors

V=\pm \dfrac{-15i+12j+4k}{\sqrt{15^2+12^2+4^2}}\\\\V=+\dfrac{-15i+12j+4k}{\sqrt{385}}\\V=-\dfrac{-15i+12j+4k}{\sqrt{385}}

First vector

V=+ \dfrac{-15i+12j+4k}{\sqrt{385}}

Second vector

V=- \dfrac{-15i+12j+4k}{\sqrt{385}}
