Find the direction cosines and direction ratios for the following vector

`hat"j"`

योग

उत्तर

`hat"j" = 0hat"i" + hat"j" + 0hat"k"`

The direction ratios of the vector `hat"j"` are (0, 1, 0)

The direction cosines of the vector `hat"j"` are

`0/sqrt(0^2 + 1^2 + 0^2), 1/sqrt(0^2 + 1^2 + 0^2), 0/sqrt(0^2 + 1^2 + 0^2)`

`0/1, 1/1, 0/1`

(0, 1, 0)

Direction ratios = (0, 1, 0)

Direction cosines = (0, 1, 0)
