With respect to a rectangular cartesian coordinate system, three vectors are expressed as

$\vec a = 4\hat i - \hat j$, $\vec b = - 3\hat i + 2\hat j$ and $\vec c = - \hat k$ 

where $\hat i,\,\hat j,\,\hat k$ are unit vectors, along the $X, Y $ and $Z-$axis respectively. The unit vectors $\hat r$ along the direction of sum of these vector is

  • A

    $\hat r = \frac{1}{{\sqrt 3 }}(\hat i + \hat j - \hat k)$

  • B

    $\hat r = \frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}(\hat i + \hat j - \hat k)$

  • C

    $\hat r = \frac{1}{3}(\hat i - \hat j + \hat k)$

  • D

    $\hat r = \frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}(\hat i + \hat j + \hat k)$
