MCQ
The expression $\left( {\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}\hat i + \frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}\hat j} \right)$ is a
- ✓Unit vector
- BNull vector
- CVector of magnitude $\sqrt 2 $
- DScalar
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
Unit vector
a
(a) $\vec P = \frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}\hat i + \frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}\hat j$
(a) $\vec P = \frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}\hat i + \frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}\hat j$
$|\vec P| = \sqrt {{{\left( {\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}} \right)}^2} + {{\left( {\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}} \right)}^2}} = 1$
It is a unit vector.
