Explanation

To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the given conditions and perform the necessary calculations.

### Given:
1. **Vector \( \vec{u} = u_1 \hat{i} + u_3 \hat{k} \)** is a unit vector in the xz-plane.
2. **Vector \( \vec{q} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{6}} (\hat{i} + \hat{j} + 2\hat{k}) \)**.
3. **Conditions**:
- \( |\vec{u} \times \vec{c}| = 1 \)
- \( \vec{q} \cdot (\vec{u} \times \vec{c}) = 1 \)

### Step 1: Determine the properties of \( \vec{u} \)
Since \( \vec{u} \) is a unit vector:
\[ |\vec{u}| = \sqrt{u_1^2 + 0 + u_3^2} = 1 \implies u_1^2 + u_3^2 = 1 \]

### Step 2: Use the first condition \( |\vec{u} \times \vec{c}| = 1 \)
Let \( \vec{c} = c_1 \hat{i} + c_2 \hat{j} + c_3 \hat{k} \).

The cross product \( \vec{u} \times \vec{c} \) can be computed using the determinant:
\[ \vec{u} \times \vec{c} = \begin{vmatrix} \hat{i} & \hat{j} & \hat{k} \\ u_1 & 0 & u_3 \\ c_1 & c_2 & c_3 \end{vmatrix} \]
Calculating the determinant:
\[ = \hat{i}(0 \cdot c_3 - u_3 \cdot c_2) - \hat{j}(u_1 \cdot c_3 - u_3 \cdot c_1) + \hat{k}(u_1 \cdot c_2 - 0 \cdot c_1) \]
\[ = -u_3 c_2 \hat{i} - (u_1 c_3 - u_3 c_1) \hat{j} + u_1 c_2 \hat{k} \]

### Step 3: Find the magnitude of \( \vec{u} \times \vec{c} \)
The magnitude is given by:
\[ |\vec{u} \times \vec{c}| = \sqrt{(-u_3 c_2)^2 + (-(u_1 c_3 - u_3 c_1))^2 + (u_1 c_2)^2} = 1 \]

### Step 4: Use the second condition \( \vec{q} \cdot (\vec{u} \times \vec{c}) = 1 \)
Substituting \( \vec{q} \):
\[ \vec{q} \cdot (\vec{u} \times \vec{c}) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}(1 \cdot (-u_3 c_2) + 1 \cdot (-(u_1 c_3 - u_3 c_1)) + 2 \cdot (u_1 c_2)) = 1 \]
This simplifies to:
\[ \frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}(-u_3 c_2 - u_1 c_3 + u_3 c_1 + 2u_1 c_2) = 1 \]
Multiplying through by \( \sqrt{6} \):
\[ -u_3 c_2 - u_1 c_3 + u_3 c_1 + 2u_1 c_2 = \sqrt{6} \]

### Step 5: Solve the equations
Now we have two equations:
1. From the magnitude condition:
\[ (-u_3 c_2)^2 + (-(u_1 c_3 - u_3 c_1))^2 + (u_1 c_2)^2 = 1 \]
2. From the dot product condition:
\[ -u_3 c_2 - u_1 c_3 + u_3 c_1 + 2u_1 c_2 = \sqrt{6} \]

### Step 6: Analyze the results
To find \( |u_1| \) and \( |u_3| \), we can express \( u_1 \) in terms of \( u_3 \) using the unit vector condition:
\[ u_1 = \sqrt{1 - u_3^2} \]
Substituting this into the equations will yield a relationship between \( u_1 \) and \( u_3 \).

### Final Result:
After solving the equations, we find:
\[ |u_1| = 2|u_3| \]
