The unit vector bisecting `vec(OY)` and `vec(OZ)` is

A

`(hati+hatj+hatk)/(sqrt(3))`

B

`(hatj-hatk)/(sqrt(2))`

C

`(hatj+hatk)/(sqrt(2))`

D

`(-hatj+hatk)/(sqrt(2))`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`hatj and hatk` are unit vectors along Y and Z-axes, then unit vector bisecting OY and OZ is `(hatj+hatk)/(sqrt(2))`.
