Question

If a vector has magnitude 1, then the vector is called as

  1. Orthogonal vector
  2. Unit vector
  3. Time vector
  4. Null vector

hintHint:

If only Unit is written it means 1.

The correct answer is: Unit vector


    • We say that 2 vectors are orthogonal if they are perpendicular to each other
    • A vector is a quantity that has both magnitude, as well as direction. A vector that has a magnitude of 1 is a unit vector. It is also known as Direction Vector.
    • A directionless vector whose magnitude is zero is called a null vector.

    If a scalar is multiplied by a vector, the whole quantity becomes?

    When a vector is multiplied by a scaler quantity, the magnitude of the vector quantity changes in accordance with the magnitude of the scaler quantity but the direction of the vector remains unchanged, hence, after multiplication of both the quantities the whole quantity becomes a vector quantity.
