Question
Write a unit vector in the direction of $\vec{\text{b}}=2\hat{\text{i}}+\hat{\text{j}}+2\hat{\text{k}}$.

Answer

Given: $\vec{\text{b}}=2\hat{\text{i}}+\hat{\text{j}}+2\hat{\text{k}}$
$\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|=\sqrt{2^2+1^2+2^2}$ $=\sqrt{4+1+4}$ $=\sqrt9$ $=3$ $\therefore$ Unit vector $=\frac{\vec{\text{b}}}{\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|}=\frac{1}3\big(2\hat{\text{i}}+\hat{\text{j}}+2\hat{\text{k}}\big)$ $=\frac{2}3\hat{\text{i}}+\frac{1}3\hat{\text{j}}+\frac{2}3\hat{\text{k}}$
