If the position vectors of the vertices of $\triangle ABC$ are $3\hat{i}+4\hat{j}-\hat{k}$, $\hat{i}+3\hat{j}+\hat{k}$, and $5(\hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k})$ respectively, then the magnitude of the altitude from $A$ onto the side $BC$ is

  • A
    $\frac{4}{3}\sqrt{5}$
  • B
    $\frac{5}{3}\sqrt{5}$
  • C
    $\frac{7}{3}\sqrt{5}$
