What is the magnitude of the resultant
vector’s unit vector? (Resultant vector of
the two vectors shown in the figure
below)
ANSWER
1 Newton
Explanation: The question asked is asking for the
magnitude of the unit vector of the resultant
vector, thus the answer is 1. Whether the
magnitude of the vector is any quantity, but the
unit vector will have the magnitude equal to
unity. And the direction given by the unit vector
will be in the same direction as that of the vector.
