- MCQ
What will be the projection of vector \(A=\hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k}\) on vector \(\vec{B}=\hat{i}+\hat{j}\).
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \((\hat{i}+\hat{j})\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Projection of vector \(A\) on vector \(B\)
\((A \cos \theta) \hat{B}=A\left(\frac{\bar{A} \cdot \bar{B}}{A B}\right) \hat{B}=\frac{\bar{A} \cdot \bar{B}}{B} \hat{B}\)
\(=\frac{2}{\sqrt{2}}\left(\frac{\hat{i}+\hat{j}}{\sqrt{2}}\right)=\hat{i}+\hat{j}\)
