Question

If a unit vector is represented by $0.5\hat{i}+0.8\hat{j}+c\hat{k}$, then the value of ‘c’ is

• A. 1
• B. $\sqrt{0.11}$
• C. $\sqrt{0.01}$
  
• D. $\sqrt{0.39}$
  

Answer 1

The correct option is B

$\sqrt{0.11}$

Magnitude of unit vector = 1
$\Rightarrow \sqrt{(0.5{)}^2+(0.8{)}^2+c^2}=1$
By solving we get $c=\sqrt{0.11}$.
