ANSWER:  5

GIVEN:  |\vec{a}|=2|\vec{b}|=5 \quad \& \vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}=2

HINTS:Use the identity of  \left ( a-b \right )^{2}

SOLUTION:

\begin{aligned} &|\vec{a}-\vec{b}|^{2}=|\vec{a}|^{2}-|\vec{b}|^{2}-2 \vec{a} \cdot \vec{b} \qquad\left[\because(a-b)^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2}-2 a b\right] \\ & \end{aligned}

\Rightarrow|\vec{a}-\vec{b}|^{2}=(2)^{2}+(5)^{2}-2 \times 2 \qquad\left[\because|\vec{a}|^{2}=2 \&|\vec{b}|^{2}=5 \& \vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}=2\right]

\begin{aligned} &\Rightarrow|\vec{a}-\vec{b}|^{2}=4+25-4 \\ & \end{aligned}

\Rightarrow|\vec{a}-\vec{b}|^{2}=25 \\

\Rightarrow|\vec{a}-\vec{b}|=5
