Answers (1)

Answer: m=\pm \frac{1}{a}

Hint: You must know the rules of vector functions

Given: If \vec{a} is a non-zero vector of modulus a and m is a non-zero scalar such that m\vec{a} is a unit vector, find m.

Solution: \vec{a}is non-zero vector with modulus a and m

            Also m\vec{a} is unit vector

Therefore,

            \begin{aligned} &\qquad\mid m \vec{a} \mid=1 \\ \end{aligned}

            \begin{aligned} &\Rightarrow|m||\vec{a}|=1 \\ \end{aligned}

            \begin{aligned} \Rightarrow|m| a=1 \\ \end{aligned}

            \begin{aligned} |m|=\frac{1}{a} \\ \end{aligned}

               \begin{aligned} &\Rightarrow m=\pm \frac{1}{a} \end{aligned}
