Addition & Subtraction of Vectors

Let P⃗=i^+j^+k^\vec{P} = \hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k} and Q⃗=−i^−j^−k^\vec{Q} = -\hat{i} - \hat{j} - \hat{k}. The angle between (P⃗−Q⃗)(\vec{P} - \vec{Q}) and P⃗\vec{P} is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. Q⃗=−P⃗\vec{Q} = -\vec{P}, so P⃗−Q⃗=2P⃗=2i^+2j^+2k^\vec{P} - \vec{Q} = 2\vec{P} = 2\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + 2\hat{k}.
  2. 2P⃗2\vec{P} points along P⃗\vec{P}, so the angle is 0∘0^\circ.
  3. So the answer is (d) 0∘0^\circ.
