If omega = z/[z-(1/3)i] and |omega| = 1,...

If `omega = z/[z-(1/3)i]` and `|omega| = 1`, then find the locus of z.

A

a parabola

B

a straight line

C

a circle

D

an ellipse

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
We have,
`omega=z/(z-i/3)` and `|omega|=1`
`rArr |z/(z-i/3)|=1`
`rArr |z|/|z-i/3|=1`
`rArr |z|=|z-(0+1/3i)|=1`
`rArr` z lies on the perpendicular bisector of the line segment joining O(0,0) and `A(0,1//3)`, which is a straight line.
