\(\vec{a}\)=\(\hat{i}\) + 2\(\hat{j}\) and \(\vec{b}\)=2\(\hat{i}\) + \(\hat{j}\) , Is |\(\vec{a}\)| = |\(\vec{b}\)|?(a) Yes(b) NoI have been asked this question in quiz.This question is from Multiplication of a Vector by a Scalar in chapter Vector Algebra of Mathematics – Class 12 |

Answer» CORRECT ANSWER is (a) Yes For explanation I would say: As we know that MAGNITUDE of vector is calculated by formula \(\SQRT{x^2+ y^2}\). Therefore, |\(\vec{a}\)| = \(\sqrt{12} + 22 = \sqrt{5}\) and \(|\vec{b}| = \sqrt{22} + 12 = \sqrt{5}\), they are equal. |
