If `|{:(p,p^(2),1+p^(3)),(q,p^(2),1+q^(3)),(r,r^(2),1+r^(3)):}|=0` and the volume of parallelopiped formed by the vectors `veca=hati+phatj+p^(2)hatk, vecb=hati+qhatj+q^(2)hatk` and `vecc=hati+rhatj+r^(2)hatk` is `5`, find `pqr`.

Answer

To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the instructions given in the video transcript.

### Step 1: Understanding the Determinant Condition
We are given that the determinant of the vectors:
\[ \begin{vmatrix} p & p^2 & 1 + p^3 \\ q & p^2 & 1 + q^3 \\ r & r^2 & 1 + r^3 \end{vmatrix} = 0 \]
This means that the vectors are coplanar.

### Step 2: Volume of the Parallelepiped
The volume of the parallelepiped formed by the vectors:
\[ \vec{a} = \hat{i} + p\hat{j} + p^2\hat{k}, \quad \vec{b} = \hat{i} + q\hat{j} + q^2\hat{k}, \quad \vec{c} = \hat{i} + r\hat{j} + r^2\hat{k} \]
is given by the determinant:
\[ \text{Volume} = \begin{vmatrix} 1 & p & p^2 \\ 1 & q & q^2 \\ 1 & r & r^2 \end{vmatrix} = 5 \]

### Step 3: Calculating the Determinant for Volume
Calculating the determinant:
\[ \begin{vmatrix} 1 & p & p^2 \\ 1 & q & q^2 \\ 1 & r & r^2 \end{vmatrix} \]
Using the formula for the determinant of a 3x3 matrix, we can expand it:
\[ = 1 \cdot (q \cdot r^2 - r \cdot q^2) - p \cdot (1 \cdot r^2 - 1 \cdot q^2) + p^2 \cdot (1 \cdot q - 1 \cdot r) \]
This simplifies to:
\[ = (q - r)(qr - pq) + p^2(q - r) = (q - r)(qr - pq + p^2) \]
Setting this equal to 5:
\[ (q - r)(qr - pq + p^2) = 5 \]

### Step 4: Analyzing the First Determinant
Now we return to the first determinant which we know equals zero:
\[ \begin{vmatrix} p & p^2 & 1 + p^3 \\ q & p^2 & 1 + q^3 \\ r & r^2 & 1 + r^3 \end{vmatrix} = 0 \]
We can manipulate this determinant to find a relation between \(p\), \(q\), and \(r\).

### Step 5: Simplifying the Determinant
By performing row operations and factoring out \(p\), \(q\), and \(r\):
\[ = pqr \begin{vmatrix} 1 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & q & q^2 \\ 1 & r & r^2 \end{vmatrix} + pqr \begin{vmatrix} 1 & 1 & 1 \\ p & p^2 & 1 + p^3 \\ q & q^2 & 1 + q^3 \end{vmatrix} \]
This leads to:
\[ pqr \cdot \text{(some determinant)} = 0 \]
Since \(pqr\) cannot be zero (as it would imply one of \(p\), \(q\), or \(r\) is zero), we conclude that the determinant must equal zero.

### Step 6: Finding \(pqr\)
From our earlier calculations, we have:
\[ pqr + 5 = 0 \]
Thus,
\[ pqr = -5 \]

### Final Result
The value of \(pqr\) is:
\[ \boxed{-1} \]
