The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given vectors are parallel, we need to analyze the direction ratios of each vector. Two vectors are parallel if their direction ratios are proportional. ### Given Vectors: 1. \( \vec{A} = 6 \hat{i} + 8 \hat{j} \) 2. \( \vec{B} = 210 \hat{i} + 280 \hat{k} \) 3. \( \vec{C} = 0.3 \hat{i} + 0.4 \hat{j} \) 4. \( \vec{D} = 3.6 \hat{i} + 6 \hat{j} + 4.8 \hat{k} \) ### Step 1: Identify the direction ratios - For \( \vec{A} \): The direction ratios are \( (6, 8) \). - For \( \vec{B} \): The direction ratios are \( (210, 0, 280) \). - For \( \vec{C} \): The direction ratios are \( (0.3, 0.4) \). - For \( \vec{D} \): The direction ratios are \( (3.6, 6, 4.8) \). ### Step 2: Check for parallelism between \( \vec{A} \) and \( \vec{C} \) To check if \( \vec{A} \) and \( \vec{C} \) are parallel, we need to see if the ratios of their direction ratios are equal. - The ratio for \( \vec{A} \) is \( \frac{6}{0.3} = 20 \) and \( \frac{8}{0.4} = 20 \). Since both ratios are equal, \( \vec{A} \) and \( \vec{C} \) are parallel. ### Step 3: Check for parallelism between \( \vec{B} \) and \( \vec{D} \) Next, we check \( \vec{B} \) and \( \vec{D} \). - \( \vec{B} \) has direction ratios \( (210, 0, 280) \). - \( \vec{D} \) has direction ratios \( (3.6, 6, 4.8) \). Since \( \vec{B} \) has a non-zero component in the \( \hat{k} \) direction and \( \vec{D} \) has components in all three directions, they cannot be parallel. ### Step 4: Conclude the results Thus, the only parallel vectors among the given options are \( \vec{A} \) and \( \vec{C} \). ### Final Answer: The parallel vectors are \( \vec{A} \) and \( \vec{C} \). ---
