Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(5\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\vec{p} = \frac{\vec{a} + \vec{c}}{2}\) \(\vec{p} = \frac{(7\bar{i}-4\bar{j}+7\bar{k}) + (-\bar{i}-3\bar{j}+4\bar{k})}{2}\) \(\vec{p} = \frac{6\bar{i}-7\bar{j}+11\bar{k}}{2}\) \(\vec{p} = 3\bar{i} - \frac{7}{2}\bar{j} + \frac{11}{2}\bar{k}\)…
