A unit vector is a vector with a magnitude of 1 and is used to indicate direction in a coordinate system.
The magnitude of a vector can be found using the Pythagorean theorem, which states that the magnitude is equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of its components.
Finding the unit vector of a vector means to find the vector with the same direction as the original vector, but with a magnitude of 1.
No, the magnitude of a unit vector is always positive and equal to 1.
To find the unit vector of a vector with a given magnitude, you divide each component of the vector by its magnitude. This will result in a vector with the same direction, but with a magnitude of 1.
