The unit vector along `hat(i)+hat(j)` is

A

`hat(k)`

B

`hat(i)+hat(j)`

C

`(hat(i)+hat(j))/(sqrt(2))`

D

`(hat(i)+hat(j))/(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`LetA=hat(i)+hat(j)`
`|A|=sqrt((1)^(2)+(1)^(2))=sqrt(2)`
:. Unit vector along A will be `hat(a)` given by
`hat(A)=(A)/|A|=(hat(i)+hat(j))/(sqrt(2))`
