Let $\vec{a}, \vec{b}, \vec{c}$ be three vectors such that $\vec{a} \times \vec{b} = 2(\vec{a} \times \vec{c})$. If $|\vec{a}| = 1, |\vec{b}| = 4, |\vec{c}| = 2$, and the angle between $\vec{b}$ and $\vec{c}$ is $60^{\circ}$, then $|\vec{a} \cdot \vec{c}|$ is:

  • A
    $2$
  • B
    $4$
  • C
    $0$
  • D
    $1$
