Let $\hat { \imath } , \hat { \jmath }$ and $\hat { k }$ be the unit vectors along the three positive coordinate axes. Let
$$\begin{aligned}
& \vec { a } = 3 \hat { \imath } + \hat { \jmath } - \hat { k } , \\
& \vec { b } = \hat { \imath } + b _ { 2 } \hat { \jmath } + b _ { 3 } \hat { k } , \quad b _ { 2 } , b _ { 3 } \in \mathbb { R } , \\
& \vec { c } = c _ { 1 } \hat { \imath } + c _ { 2 } \hat { \jmath } + c _ { 3 } \hat { k } , \quad c _ { 1 } , c _ { 2 } , c _ { 3 } \in \mathbb { R }
\end{aligned}$$
be three vectors such that $b _ { 2 } b _ { 3 } > 0 , \vec { a } \cdot \vec { b } = 0$ and
$$\left( \begin{array} { r c r }
0 & - c _ { 3 } & c _ { 2 } \\
c _ { 3 } & 0 & - c _ { 1 } \\
- c _ { 2 } & c _ { 1 } & 0
\end{array} \right) \left( \begin{array} { l }
1 \\
b _ { 2 } \\
b _ { 3 }
\end{array} \right) = \left( \begin{array} { r }
3 - c _ { 1 } \\
1 - c _ { 2 } \\
- 1 - c _ { 3 }
\end{array} \right)$$
Then, which of the following is/are TRUE ?
(A) $\vec { a } \cdot \vec { c } = 0$
(B) $\vec { b } \cdot \vec { c } = 0$
(C) $| \vec { b } | > \sqrt { 10 }$
(D) $| \vec { c } | \leq \sqrt { 11 }$
