JEE Main 29 June 2022, Shift 2, Maths Q15

Question 15 of 90 in this shift, Maths question 15 of 30, Section A.

Let A,B,CA, B, C be three points whose position vectors respectively are a⃗=i^+4j^+3k^\vec{a} = \hat{i} + 4\hat{j} + 3\hat{k} b⃗=2i^+αj^+4k^,α∈R\vec{b} = 2\hat{i} + \alpha\hat{j} + 4\hat{k}, \alpha \in \mathbb{R} c⃗=3i^−2j^+5k^\vec{c} = 3\hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + 5\hat{k} If α\alpha is the smallest positive integer for which a⃗,b⃗,c⃗\vec{a}, \vec{b}, \vec{c} are noncollinear, then the length of the median, in ΔABC\Delta ABC, through A is :
