If the vectors $\vec{a}$ and $\vec{b}$ are such that $|\vec{a}| = 3, |\vec{b}| = \frac{2}{3}$ and $\vec{a} \times \vec{b}$ is a unit vector, then find the angle between $\vec{a}$ and $\vec{b}$. |
$\frac{\pi}{6}$ $\frac{\pi}{4}$ $\frac{\pi}{3}$ $\frac{\pi}{2}$ |
$\frac{\pi}{6}$ |
The correct answer is Option (1) → $\frac{\pi}{6}$ ## Given that, $|\vec{a}| = 3, |\vec{b}| = \frac{2}{3}$ and $\vec{a} \times \vec{b}$ is a unit vector. Therefore, $|\vec{a} \times \vec{b}| = 1$ $ |\vec{a}||\vec{b}| \sin \theta = 1 $ $ 3 \cdot \frac{2}{3} \sin \theta = 1 $ $ \sin \theta = \frac{1}{2} \Rightarrow \theta = \frac{\pi}{6} $ The angle between $\vec{a}$ and $\vec{b}$ is $\frac{\pi}{6}$. |
