The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the vectors \(\vec{A}\) and \(\vec{B}\) based on the given equations: 1. \(\vec{A} + \vec{B} = \hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + \hat{k}\) (Equation 1) 2. \(\vec{A} - \vec{B} = \hat{i} - \hat{k}\) (Equation 2) ### Step 1: Add the two equations We can add Equation 1 and Equation 2 to eliminate \(\vec{B}\): \[ (\vec{A} + \vec{B}) + (\vec{A} - \vec{B}) = (\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + \hat{k}) + (\hat{i} - \hat{k}) \] This simplifies to: \[ 2\vec{A} = 2\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} \] ### Step 2: Solve for \(\vec{A}\) Now, divide both sides by 2: \[ \vec{A} = \hat{i} + \hat{j} \] ### Step 3: Substitute \(\vec{A}\) back into one of the original equations We can substitute \(\vec{A}\) into Equation 1 to find \(\vec{B}\): \[ (\hat{i} + \hat{j}) + \vec{B} = \hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + \hat{k} \] ### Step 4: Solve for \(\vec{B}\) Rearranging gives us: \[ \vec{B} = (\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + \hat{k}) - (\hat{i} + \hat{j}) \] This simplifies to: \[ \vec{B} = \hat{j} + \hat{k} \] ### Step 5: Find the angle between \(\vec{A}\) and \(\vec{B}\) We need to find the angle \(\theta\) between the vectors \(\vec{A}\) and \(\vec{B}\). The formula for the cosine of the angle between two vectors is: \[ \cos \theta = \frac{\vec{A} \cdot \vec{B}}{|\vec{A}| |\vec{B}|} \] ### Step 6: Calculate \(\vec{A} \cdot \vec{B}\) First, calculate the dot product: \[ \vec{A} \cdot \vec{B} = (\hat{i} + \hat{j}) \cdot (\hat{j} + \hat{k}) = (1)(0) + (1)(1) + (0)(1) = 1 \] ### Step 7: Calculate the magnitudes of \(\vec{A}\) and \(\vec{B}\) Now, calculate the magnitudes: \[ |\vec{A}| = \sqrt{1^2 + 1^2} = \sqrt{2} \] \[ |\vec{B}| = \sqrt{0^2 + 1^2 + 1^2} = \sqrt{2} \] ### Step 8: Substitute into the cosine formula Now substitute these values into the cosine formula: \[ \cos \theta = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2} \cdot \sqrt{2}} = \frac{1}{2} \] ### Step 9: Find \(\theta\) Finally, take the inverse cosine: \[ \theta = \cos^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) = 60^\circ \] ### Conclusion The vectors are: - \(\vec{A} = \hat{i} + \hat{j}\) - \(\vec{B} = \hat{j} + \hat{k}\) The angle between \(\vec{A}\) and \(\vec{B}\) is \(60^\circ\). ---
