Write a vector in the direction of vector `5 hat i- hat j+2 hat k` which has magnitude of 8 unit.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

` vec a=5 hat i- hat j+2 hat k` is,
`vec r=veca /|vec a|`
`= { 5 hat i- hat j+2 hat k}/sqrt{5^2+(-1)^2+2^2}`
`={ 5 hat i- hat j+2 hat k}/sqrt{30}`
`= 5/sqrt(30) hat i-1/sqrt30 hat j+2/sqrt30 hat k`
A vector in the direction of ` 5 hat i- hat j+2 hat k ` which has magnitude of 8 units, is
`=8vecr`
