The correct answer is: \( 60^{\circ} \)
Given that, \( 2 \vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}=|\vec{a}| \cdot|\vec{b}| \)
As we know, \( \vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}=|\vec{a}||\vec{b}| \cos \theta \)
So, \( 2|\vec{a}||\vec{b}| \cos \theta=|\vec{a}||\vec{b}| \)
\( \Rightarrow 2 \cos \theta=1 \)
\( \Rightarrow \cos \theta=\frac{1}{2} \Rightarrow \theta=60^{\circ} \)
