( 3\(\hat{i}\) + 9 \(\hat{j}\) - \(\hat{k}\) ) /√91 ( 3\(\hat{i}\) + 9 \(\hat{j}\) + \(\hat{k}\) ) /√93 ( 3\(\hat{i}\) -9 \(\hat{j}\) + \(\hat{k}\) ) /√91 ( 3\(\hat{i}\) + 9 \(\hat{j}\) + \(\hat{k}\) ) /√91 |
( 3\(\hat{i}\) + 9 \(\hat{j}\) + \(\hat{k}\) ) /√91 |
We have vectors \(\vec{a}\) = (2\(\hat{i}\) + 4 \(\hat{j}\)-6\(\hat{k}\)) and \(\vec{b}\)=(\(\hat{i}\) + 5 \(\hat{j}\) + 7\(\hat{k}\) ) Then (\(\vec{a}\) +\(\vec{b}\)) = {(2\(\hat{i}\) + 4 \(\hat{j}\)-6\(\hat{k}\)) + (\(\hat{i}\) + 5 \(\hat{j}\) + 7\(\hat{k}\) )} = ( 3\(\hat{i}\) + 9 \(\hat{j}\) + \(\hat{k}\) ) magnitude of (\(\vec{a}\) +\(\vec{b}\)) =√(3)2 +(9)2 +(1)2 = √91 The unit vector in direction of (\(\vec{a}\) +\(\vec{b}\))= (\(\vec{a}\) +\(\vec{b}\))/ |(\(\vec{a}\) +\(\vec{b}\))| So, The unit vector in direction of (\(\vec{a}\) +\(\vec{b}\)) =( 3\(\hat{i}\) + 9 \(\hat{j}\) + \(\hat{k}\) ) /√91
