The vector that must be added to the vector $\hat i - 3\hat j + 2\hat k$ and $3\hat i + 6\hat j - 7\hat k$ so that the resultant vector is a unit vector along the $y-$axis is

A

$4\hat i + 2\hat j + 5\hat k$

B

$ - 4\hat i - 2\hat j + 5\hat k$

C

$3\hat i + 4\hat j + 5\hat k$

D

Null vector

Solution

(b) Unit vector along y axis $ = \hat j$ so the required vector

$ = \hat j – [(\hat i – 3\hat j + 2\hat k) + (3\hat i + 6\hat j – 7\hat k)]$

$ = – \,4\hat i – \,2\hat j + 5\hat k$
