Let \(\vec{a}\) and \(\vec{b}\) be two unit vectors and \(\theta\) is the angle between them. If \(\vec{a}+\vec{b}\) is a unit vector, then \(\theta\) is:
- A \(\frac{2 \pi}{3}\)
- B \(\frac{\pi}{2}\)
- C \(\frac{\pi}{3}\)
- D \(\frac{\pi}{4}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(\frac{2 \pi}{3}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(|\vec{a}+\vec{b}|^2 = |\vec{a}|^2 + |\vec{b}|^2 + 2|\vec{a}||\vec{b}|\cos\theta\) \(1^2 = 1^2 + 1^2 + 2(1)(1)\cos\theta\) \(1 = 1 + 1 + 2\cos\theta\) \(1 = 2 + 2\cos\theta\) \(-1 = 2\cos\theta\) \(\cos\theta = -\frac{1}{2}\) \(\theta = \frac{2\pi}{3}\)
