Find the angle between the two vectors \(\vec{a} \,and \, \vec{b}\) with magnitude 2 and \(\sqrt{3}\) respectively and \(\vec{a.} \, \vec{b}\)=4.(a) \(\frac{π}{3}\)(b) \(\frac{π}{6}\)(c) \(cos^{-1}\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}\)(d) \(cos^{-1}\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\)I have been asked this question in homework.I'm obligated to ask this question of Product of Two Vectors-1 topic in portion Vector Algebra of Mathematics – Class 12 |

Answer» CORRECT CHOICE is (b) \(\frac{π}{6}\) To explain: GIVEN that, \(|\vec{a}|=2 \,and \,|\vec{b}|=\sqrt{3}\) Also, \(\vec{a.} \,\vec{b}=4\) The ANGLE between two vectors is given by \(cosθ=\frac{|\vec{a}|.|\vec{b}|}{\vec{a}.\vec{b}}\) ∴\(cosθ=\frac{2.\sqrt{3}}{4}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\) ∴\(θ=cos^{-1}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\frac{π}{6}\). |
