If $a$,$b$,and $c$ are unit vectors,then $|a - b|^2 + |b - c|^2 + |c - a|^2$ does not exceed

$ABCD$ is a parallelogram. The position vectors of $A$ and $C$ are respectively $3\hat{i} + 3\hat{j} + 5\hat{k}$ and $\hat{i} - 5\hat{j} - 5\hat{k}$. If $M$ is the midpoint of the diagonal $DB$,then the magnitude of the projection of $\vec{OM}$ on $\vec{OC}$,where $O$ is the origin,is

If vector $\vec{a} = 2\hat{i} - 3\hat{j} + 6\hat{k}$ and vector $\vec{b} = -2\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} - \hat{k},$ then $\frac{\text{Projection of vector } \vec{a} \text{ on vector } \vec{b}}{\text{Projection of vector } \vec{b} \text{ on vector } \vec{a}} = $

Let $\vec{c}$ be the projection vector of $\vec{b}=\lambda \hat{i}+4 \hat{k}, \lambda>0$,on the vector $\vec{a}=\hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+2 \hat{k}$. If $|\vec{a}+\vec{c}|=7$,then the area of the parallelogram formed by the vectors $\vec{b}$ and $\vec{c}$ is . . . . . . .

If the angle between the two vectors $\vec{u} = \hat{i} + \hat{k}$ and $\vec{v} = \hat{i} - \hat{j} + a\hat{k}$ is $\pi/3$,find the value of $a$.

If $\overline{a}, \overline{b}, \overline{c}$ are non-coplanar vectors and $\overline{p}=\frac{\overline{b} \times \overline{c}}{[\overline{a} \overline{b} \overline{c}]}, \overline{q}=\frac{\overline{c} \times \overline{a}}{[\overline{a} \overline{b} \overline{c}]}, \overline{r}=\frac{\overline{a} \times \overline{b}}{[\overline{a} \overline{b} \overline{c}]}, \quad$ then $2 \overline{a} \cdot \overline{p}+\overline{b} \cdot \overline{q}+\overline{c} \cdot \overline{r}=$
