Students have asked these similar questions
A unit vector is a vector of magnitude 1. Multiplying a vector by a scalar changes its magnitude but not its direction.
(a) If a vector v has magnitude m, what scalar multiple of v has magnitude 1 (that is, is a unit vector)?
(b) Multiply each of the following vectors by an appropriate scalar to change them into unit vectors.
(1, –2, 2)
(-6, 8, –10)
(7, 5, 9)
Using the vectors shown in the figure, write each sum or difference as a single vector.
