The value of $x$ for which the angle between the vectors $\vec{a} = x\hat{i} - 3\hat{j} - \hat{k}$ and $\vec{b} = 2x\hat{i} + x\hat{j} - \hat{k}$ is acute,and the angle between the vector $\vec{b}$ and the $y$-axis (axis of ordinate) is obtuse,are:

  • A
    $x > 1$ or $x < 1/2$
  • B
    $x < -2$ or $x > -1/2$
  • C
    $x < -3$ or $x > -2$
