To solve the problem, we need to find the unit vector \(\vec{a}\) given that it is perpendicular to both unit vectors \(\vec{b}\) and \(\vec{c}\), and the angle between \(\vec{b}\) and \(\vec{c}\) is \(\frac{\pi}{6}\). ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Given Information**: - We have three unit vectors: \(\vec{a}\), \(\vec{b}\), and \(\vec{c}\). - The dot products \(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b} = 0\) and \(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{c} = 0\) imply that \(\vec{a}\) is perpendicular to both \(\vec{b}\) and \(\vec{c}\). - The angle between \(\vec{b}\) and \(\vec{c}\) is \(\frac{\pi}{6}\). ...
