Question

The angle between vectors $\vec{a} = \hat{i} + \hat{j}$ and $\vec{b} = \hat{j} + \hat{k}$ is:

Options

  1. A

    $\frac{\pi}{3}$

  2. B

    $\frac{\pi}{2}$

  3. C

    $\frac{\pi}{4}$

  4. D

    $\frac{\pi}{6}$

Solution

$\cos\theta = \frac{\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}}{|\vec{a}||\vec{b}|} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2} \cdot \sqrt{2}} = \frac{1}{2}$

$$\theta = \frac{\pi}{3}$$
