Consider the vectors
$$ \vec{x}=\hat{\imath}+2 \hat{\jmath}+3 \hat{k}, \quad \vec{y}=2 \hat{\imath}+3 \hat{\jmath}+\hat{k}, \quad \text { and } \quad \vec{z}=3 \hat{\imath}+\hat{\jmath}+2 \hat{k} $$
For two distinct positive real numbers $\alpha$ and $\beta$, define
$$ \vec{X}=\alpha \vec{x}+\beta \vec{y}-\vec{z}, \quad \vec{Y}=\alpha \vec{y}+\beta \vec{z}-\vec{x}, \quad \text { and } \quad \vec{Z}=\alpha \vec{z}+\beta \vec{x}-\vec{y} . $$
If the vectors $\vec{X}, \vec{Y}$, and $\vec{Z}$ lie in a plane, then the value of $\alpha+\beta-3$ is ____________.
For any two points $M$ and $N$ in the $XY$-plane, let $\overrightarrow{MN}$ denote the vector from $M$ to $N$, and $\vec{0}$ denote the zero vector. Let $P, Q$ and $R$ be three distinct points in the $XY$-plane. Let $S$ be a point inside the triangle $\triangle PQR$ such that
$$\overrightarrow{SP} + 5\; \overrightarrow{SQ} + 6\; \overrightarrow{SR} = \vec{0}.$$
Let $E$ and $F$ be the mid-points of the sides $PR$ and $QR$, respectively. Then the value of
$\frac{\text { length of the line segment } E F}{\text { length of the line segment } E S}$
is ________________.
Let $\vec{p}=2 \hat{i}+\hat{j}+3 \hat{k}$ and $\vec{q}=\hat{i}-\hat{j}+\hat{k}$. If for some real numbers $\alpha, \beta$, and $\gamma$, we have
$$ 15 \hat{i}+10 \hat{j}+6 \hat{k}=\alpha(2 \vec{p}+\vec{q})+\beta(\vec{p}-2 \vec{q})+\gamma(\vec{p} \times \vec{q}), $$
then the value of $\gamma$ is ________.
Let $\overrightarrow{O P}=\frac{\alpha-1}{\alpha} \hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k}, \overrightarrow{O Q}=\hat{i}+\frac{\beta-1}{\beta} \hat{j}+\hat{k}$ and $\overrightarrow{O R}=\hat{i}+\hat{j}+\frac{1}{2} \hat{k}$ be three vectors, where $\alpha, \beta \in \mathbb{R}-\{0\}$ and $O$ denotes the origin. If $(\overrightarrow{O P} \times \overrightarrow{O Q}) \cdot \overrightarrow{O R}=0$ and the point $(\alpha, \beta, 2)$ lies on the plane $3 x+3 y-z+l=0$, then the value of $l$ is ____________.
