Answer

$-7\hat{i}+12\hat{j}+0\hat{k} $

Work Step by Step

Given, The initial position vector of the proton $\overrightarrow{r_1}= 5\hat{i}-6\hat{j}+2\hat{k}$ The final position vector of the proton $\overrightarrow{r_2} = -2\hat{i}+6\hat{j}+2\hat{k}$ The displacement vector $\overrightarrow{d} =\overrightarrow{r_2}-\overrightarrow{r_1}$ Therefore; $\overrightarrow{d}=-2\hat{i}+6\hat{j}+2\hat{k} - (5\hat{i}-6\hat{j}+2\hat{k})$ $\overrightarrow{d} =-7\hat{i}+12\hat{j}+0\hat{k} $
