To determine which statements about the collinear vectors \( \vec{a} \) and \( \vec{b} \) are incorrect, let's analyze each option step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Collinear Vectors:** - Two vectors \( \vec{a} \) and \( \vec{b} \) are said to be collinear if they lie along the same line. This means that one vector can be expressed as a scalar multiple of the other. 2. **Analyzing Statement (A):** ...
