Previous Year Question (PYQs)



If $\vec{a}, \vec{b}$ are unit vectors such that $2\vec{a}+\vec{b} =3$ then which of the following statement is true?





Solution


Quick Solution

Given: \( \vec{a}, \vec{b} \) are unit vectors and

\( 2\vec{a} + \vec{b} = 3 \)

Take magnitude on both sides:

\( |2\vec{a} + \vec{b}| = 3 \Rightarrow |2\vec{a} + \vec{b}|^2 = 9 \)

Use identity:

\[ |2\vec{a} + \vec{b}|^2 = 4|\vec{a}|^2 + |\vec{b}|^2 + 4(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}) = 4 + 1 + 4(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}) = 5 + 4(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}) \]

Set equal to 9:

\[ 5 + 4(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}) = 9 \Rightarrow \vec{a} \cdot \vec{b} = 1 \Rightarrow \cos\theta = 1 \Rightarrow \theta = 0^\circ \]
