**Topic: Cross Product and Orthogonality**

**Objective**: Calculate the cross product of two vectors and demonstrate orthogonality.

---

**Problem Statement**:

**Find** \( \mathbf{u} \times \mathbf{v} \).

Given vectors:
\[ \mathbf{u} = \mathbf{j} + 3\mathbf{k} \]
\[ \mathbf{v} = 7\mathbf{i} - \mathbf{k} \]

\[ \text{Cross Product:} \]

\[ \boxed{\phantom{answer}} \]

---

**Show that** \( \mathbf{u} \times \mathbf{v} \) **is orthogonal to both** \( \mathbf{u} \) **and** \( \mathbf{v} \).

**Dot Product Verification**:

\[ (\mathbf{u} \times \mathbf{v}) \cdot \mathbf{u} = \boxed{\phantom{answer}} \]

\[ (\mathbf{u} \times \mathbf{v}) \cdot \mathbf{v} = \boxed{\phantom{answer}} \]
