The unit vector in the xy-plane, making an angle of \(60^{\circ}\) with the positive direction of x-axis is:

  1. A \(\frac{1}{2} \hat{i}-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \hat{j}\)
  2. B \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \hat{i}+\frac{1}{2} \hat{j}\)
  3. C \(\frac{1}{2} \hat{i}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \hat{j}\)
  4. D \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \hat{i}-\frac{1}{2} \hat{j}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{1}{2} \hat{i}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \hat{j}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\vec{u} = \cos 60^{\circ} \hat{i} + \sin 60^{\circ} \hat{j}\) \(\vec{u} = \frac{1}{2} \hat{i} + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \hat{j}\)
