直接用行列式计算两个向量的叉积。结果是平面 Π1\Pi_1 的一个法向量;(b) 会把它约去公因数 22

答题过程

展开 (7i+5j6k)×(3i+j+2k)=ijk756312=(5(2)(6)(1))i(7(2)(6)(3))j+(7(1)5(3))k=16i+4j+22k.\begin{align*} &(7\mathbf i+5\mathbf j-6\mathbf k) \times(-3\mathbf i+\mathbf j+2\mathbf k)\\ =&\, \begin{vmatrix} \mathbf i&\mathbf j&\mathbf k\\ 7&5&-6\\ -3&1&2 \end{vmatrix}\\ =&\,\big(5(2)-(-6)(1)\big)\mathbf i\\ &\,-\big(7(2)-(-6)(-3)\big)\mathbf j\\ &\,+\big(7(1)-5(-3)\big)\mathbf k\\ =&\,\boxed{16\mathbf i+4\mathbf j+22\mathbf k}. \end{align*}

(b)

解法一

思路

展开

承接 (a),把叉积除以 22 得到题目指定的法向量 (8,2,11)(8,2,11)。平面上已知基点是 (4,2,1)(4,2,-1),将它与法向量作点积即可求常数 pp

答题过程

展开

From part (a), a normal vector to Π1\Pi_1 is

n=(8211).\mathbf n= \begin{pmatrix} 8\\ 2\\ 11 \end{pmatrix}.

The point with position vector

r0=(421)\mathbf r_0= \begin{pmatrix} 4\\ 2\\ -1 \end{pmatrix}

lies on Π1\Pi_1. Hence

p=r0n=4(8)+2(2)+(1)(11)=25.\begin{align*} p =&\,\mathbf r_0\mathbin{\boldsymbol\cdot}\mathbf n\\ =&\,4(8)+2(2)+(-1)(11)\\ =&\,25. \end{align*}

Therefore,

r(8i+2j+11k)=25.\boxed{ \mathbf r\mathbin{\boldsymbol\cdot} (8\mathbf i+2\mathbf j+11\mathbf k)=25}.

(c)

解法一

思路

展开

两平面的交线同时垂直于两个法向量,所以其方向向量可由法向量的叉积求得。再令 x=0x=0 联立两个平面方程,找出交线上的一点,最后写成题目要求的叉积形式。

答题过程

展开

The normal vectors of Π1\Pi_1 and Π2\Pi_2 are

n1=(8211)\mathbf n_1= \begin{pmatrix} 8\\ 2\\ 11 \end{pmatrix}

and

n2=(111).\mathbf n_2= \begin{pmatrix} 1\\ -1\\ 1 \end{pmatrix}.

A direction vector of their line of intersection is

n1×n2=ijk8211111=(13310).\begin{align*} \mathbf n_1\times\mathbf n_2 =&\, \begin{vmatrix} \mathbf i&\mathbf j&\mathbf k\\ 8&2&11\\ 1&-1&1 \end{vmatrix}\\ =&\,\begin{pmatrix}13\\3\\-10\end{pmatrix}. \end{align*}

To find a point on the line, set x=0x=0. The plane equations give

2y+11z=25,y+z=7.\begin{align*} 2y+11z=&\,25,\\ -y+z=&\,7. \end{align*}

Solving gives z=3z=3 and y=4y=-4, so a point on l1l_1 is (0,4,3)(0,-4,3). Therefore,

(r(4j+3k))×(13i+3j10k)=0.\begin{align*} &\,\big(\mathbf r-(-4\mathbf j+3\mathbf k)\big)\\ &\,\hspace{2pt}\times (13\mathbf i+3\mathbf j-10\mathbf k) =\mathbf0. \end{align*}

思路

展开

官方评分资料也允许直接联立两个平面的笛卡尔方程。取 y=ty=t,把 x,zx,z 都表示成 tt,便能同时读出交线上的基点与方向向量,再转换成指定的叉积形式。

答题过程

展开

The two plane equations are

8x+2y+11z=25,xy+z=7.\begin{align*} 8x+2y+11z=&\,25,\\ x-y+z=&\,7. \end{align*}

Let y=ty=t. From the second equation,

x=7+tz.x=7+t-z.

Substituting into the first equation,

8(7+tz)+2t+11z=25,3z=3110t.\begin{align*} 8(7+t-z)+2t+11z=&\,25,\\ 3z=&\,-31-10t. \end{align*}

Thus

z=3110t3z=\frac{-31-10t}{3}

and

x=52+13t3.x=\frac{52+13t}{3}.

Hence

r=(5230313)+t(1331103).\begin{aligned} \mathbf r =&\, \begin{pmatrix} \frac{52}{3}\\ 0\\ -\frac{31}{3} \end{pmatrix} \\ &+t \begin{pmatrix} \frac{13}{3}\\ 1\\ -\frac{10}{3} \end{pmatrix}. \end{aligned}

Multiplying the direction vector by 33, an equation in the required form is

(r523i+313k)×(13i+3j10k)=0.\begin{align*} &\,\left( \mathbf r-\frac{52}{3}\mathbf i +\frac{31}{3}\mathbf k\right)\\ &\,\hspace{2pt}\times (13\mathbf i+3\mathbf j-10\mathbf k) =\mathbf0. \end{align*}

先求 l2l_2 的方向向量。两条异面直线的公垂线方向是两个方向向量的叉积;任取两条直线上的点,其连线向量在公垂线方向上的投影长度,就是最短距离。

答题过程

展开

A direction vector of l2l_2 is

AB=(111).\overrightarrow{AB} = \begin{pmatrix} 1\\ -1\\ -1 \end{pmatrix}.

Let

d1=(13310)\mathbf d_1= \begin{pmatrix} 13\\ 3\\ -10 \end{pmatrix}

and

d2=(111).\mathbf d_2= \begin{pmatrix} 1\\ -1\\ -1 \end{pmatrix}.

A vector perpendicular to both lines is

n=d1×d2=(13316).\begin{align*} \mathbf n =&\,\mathbf d_1\times\mathbf d_2\\ =&\,\begin{pmatrix}-13\\3\\-16\end{pmatrix}. \end{align*}

Take P=(0,4,3)P=(0,-4,3) on l1l_1 and A=(2,1,3)A=(2,1,3) on l2l_2. Then

AP=(250).\overrightarrow{AP} = \begin{pmatrix} -2\\ -5\\ 0 \end{pmatrix}.

The shortest distance is

d=APnn=(2)(13)+(5)(3)+0(16)(13)2+32+(16)2=11434.\begin{align*} d =&\,\frac{ \big|\overrightarrow{AP} \mathbin{\boldsymbol\cdot}\mathbf n\big|} {|\mathbf n|}\\ =&\,\frac{|(-2)(-13)+(-5)(3)+0(-16)|} {\sqrt{(-13)^2+3^2+(-16)^2}}\\ =&\,\boxed{\frac{11}{\sqrt{434}}}. \end{align*}

官方替代路线取两条直线上的一般点 X,YX,Y。最短连线 YX\overrightarrow{YX} 必须同时垂直于两条直线的方向向量,由两个点积为零的条件解出参数,再求该连线的模。

答题过程

展开

Take general points

X=(2+λ1λ3λ)on l2X= \begin{pmatrix} 2+\lambda\\ 1-\lambda\\ 3-\lambda \end{pmatrix} \quad\text{on }l_2

and

Y=(13μ4+3μ310μ)on l1.Y= \begin{pmatrix} 13\mu\\ -4+3\mu\\ 3-10\mu \end{pmatrix} \quad\text{on }l_1.

Then

YX=(2+λ13μ5λ3μλ+10μ).\overrightarrow{YX} = \begin{pmatrix} 2+\lambda-13\mu\\ 5-\lambda-3\mu\\ -\lambda+10\mu \end{pmatrix}.

At the shortest distance, YX\overrightarrow{YX} is perpendicular to both direction vectors. Hence

YX(13310)=0,YX(111)=0.\begin{align*} \overrightarrow{YX} \mathbin{\boldsymbol\cdot} \begin{pmatrix}13\\3\\-10\end{pmatrix} =&\,0,\\ \overrightarrow{YX} \mathbin{\boldsymbol\cdot} \begin{pmatrix}1\\-1\\-1\end{pmatrix} =&\,0. \end{align*}

Expanding,

41+20λ278μ=0,3+3λ20μ=0.\begin{align*} 41+20\lambda-278\mu=&\,0,\\ -3+3\lambda-20\mu=&\,0. \end{align*}

Solving these equations gives

λ=827217andμ=183434.\lambda=\frac{827}{217} \quad\text{and}\quad \mu=\frac{183}{434}.

Therefore,

YX=(1434343343488217).\overrightarrow{YX} = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{143}{434}\\ -\frac{33}{434}\\ \frac{88}{217} \end{pmatrix}.

Its magnitude is

YX=14341432+(33)2+1762=11434434=11434.\begin{align*} |\overrightarrow{YX}| =&\,\frac1{434} \sqrt{143^2+(-33)^2+176^2}\\ =&\,\frac{11\sqrt{434}}{434}\\ =&\,\boxed{\frac{11}{\sqrt{434}}}. \end{align*}
