Misc 5 Find the value of x for which x(𝑖 ̂ + 𝑗 ̂ + 𝑘 ̂) is a unit vector.Let 𝑎 ⃗ = x(𝑖 ̂ + 𝑗 ̂ + 𝑘 ̂) So, 𝑎 ⃗ = 𝑥𝑖 ̂ + 𝑥𝑗 ̂ + 𝑥𝑘 ̂ Given, 𝑎 ⃗ is a unit vector Magnitude of 𝑎 ⃗ is 1. So, |𝑎 ⃗ | = 1 Magnitude of 𝑎 ⃗ = √(𝑥^2+𝑥2+𝑥2) |𝑎 ⃗ | = √3𝑥2 |𝑎 ⃗ | = ±√3 𝑥 Note We take ± because x can have both positive and negative value Now, |𝑎 ⃗ | = 1 ±√3 𝑥 = 1 𝒙 = ±𝟏/√𝟑
