3 The points \(P , Q\) and \(R\) have position vectors \(\mathbf { p } = 2 \mathbf { i } + \mathbf { j } + 5 \mathbf { k } , \mathbf { q } = \mathbf { i } - \mathbf { j } + \mathbf { k }\) and \(\mathbf { r } = 2 \mathbf { i } + \mathbf { j } + t \mathbf { k }\) respectively, relative to the origin \(O\). Determine the value(s) of \(t\) in each of the following cases.
  1. The line \(O R\) is parallel to \(\mathbf { p } \times \mathbf { q }\).
  2. The volume of tetrahedron \(O P Q R\) is 13 .
