उत्तर

Here `veca = hati + 2hatj - hatk` and `vecb = hat-i + hatj + hatk`

The position vector of R, dividing the join of P and Q internally in the ratio 2:1 is

`vecR = (mvecb + nveca)/(m + n)`

`= (2 (vecb) + 1 (veca))/(2 + 1)`

`= (2 (- hati + hatj + hatk) + 1(hati + 2hatj - hatk))/ (2 + 1)`

`= (-1)/3 hati + 4/3 hatj + 1/3hatk.`
