The correct Answer is:
To find the angle between the force vector and the displacement vector, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the Displacement Vector The displacement vector \( \vec{d} \) can be calculated by subtracting the initial position vector from the final position vector. Given: - Initial position vector \( \vec{P_1} = \hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k} \) - Final position vector \( \vec{P_2} = 4\hat{i} + 5\hat{j} + 6\hat{k} \) The displacement vector \( \vec{d} \) is: \[ \vec{d} = \vec{P_2} - \vec{P_1} = (4\hat{i} + 5\hat{j} + 6\hat{k}) - (\hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k}) \] \[ \vec{d} = (4 - 1)\hat{i} + (5 - 1)\hat{j} + (6 - 1)\hat{k} = 3\hat{i} + 4\hat{j} + 5\hat{k} \] ### Step 2: Identify the Force Vector The force vector \( \vec{F} \) is given as: \[ \vec{F} = 5\hat{i} + 4\hat{j} - 3\hat{k} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the Dot Product of the Vectors The dot product \( \vec{d} \cdot \vec{F} \) is calculated as follows: \[ \vec{d} \cdot \vec{F} = (3\hat{i} + 4\hat{j} + 5\hat{k}) \cdot (5\hat{i} + 4\hat{j} - 3\hat{k}) \] \[ = 3 \cdot 5 + 4 \cdot 4 + 5 \cdot (-3) = 15 + 16 - 15 = 16 \] ### Step 4: Calculate the Magnitudes of the Vectors Now we need to find the magnitudes of \( \vec{d} \) and \( \vec{F} \). Magnitude of \( \vec{d} \): \[ |\vec{d}| = \sqrt{3^2 + 4^2 + 5^2} = \sqrt{9 + 16 + 25} = \sqrt{50} \] Magnitude of \( \vec{F} \): \[ |\vec{F}| = \sqrt{5^2 + 4^2 + (-3)^2} = \sqrt{25 + 16 + 9} = \sqrt{50} \] ### Step 5: Calculate the Cosine of the Angle Using the dot product and magnitudes, we can find the cosine of the angle \( \theta \): \[ \cos \theta = \frac{\vec{d} \cdot \vec{F}}{|\vec{d}| |\vec{F}|} = \frac{16}{\sqrt{50} \cdot \sqrt{50}} = \frac{16}{50} = \frac{8}{25} \] ### Step 6: Find the Angle Finally, we find the angle \( \theta \) by taking the inverse cosine: \[ \theta = \cos^{-1}\left(\frac{8}{25}\right) \] ### Summary The angle between the force vector and the displacement vector is \( \theta = \cos^{-1}\left(\frac{8}{25}\right) \). ---
