- Projection of $\vec{a}$ on $\vec{b}$ is $\frac{17}{\sqrt{35}}$ and the direction of the projection vector is same as of $\vec{b}$.
- Projection of $\vec{a}$ on $\vec{b}$ is $\frac{17}{\sqrt{35}}$ and the direction of the projection vector is opposite to the direction of $\vec{b}$
- Projection of $\vec{a}$ on $\vec{b}$ is $\frac{-17}{\sqrt{35}}$ and the direction of the projection vector is same as of $\vec{b}$.
- Projection of $\vec{a}$ on $\vec{b}$ is $\frac{-17}{\sqrt{35}}$ and the direction of the projection vector is opposite to the direction of $\vec{b}$.

The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
The correct option is(A): Projection of\(\vec{a}\) on \(\vec{b} \,\,is\) \(\frac{17}{\sqrt{35}}\) and the direction of the projection vector is same as of \(\vec{b}.\)
\(a=5\^{i}−\^{j}−3\^{k}\)
\(b=\^{i}−3\^{j}+5\^{k}\)
\(a⋅\^{b}=355−3−15=−35−13\)

Concepts Used:
Vector Algebra
A vector is an object which has both magnitudes and direction. It is usually represented by an arrow which shows the direction(→) and its length shows the magnitude. The arrow which indicates the vector has an arrowhead and its opposite end is the tail. It is denoted as
The magnitude of the vector is represented as |V|. Two vectors are said to be equal if they have equal magnitudes and equal direction.
Vector Algebra Operations:
Arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication on vectors. However, in the case of multiplication, vectors have two terminologies, such as dot product and cross product.
