A unit vector has a length (magnitude) equal to 1 (one unit).
A rectangular vector is a coordinate vector specified by components that define a rectangle (or rectangular prism in three dimensions, and similar shapes in greater dimensions). The starting point and terminal point of the vector lie at opposite ends of the rectangle (or prism, etc.).

Can a vector be represented in terms of unit vector?
Yes, a vector can be represented in terms of a unit vector which is in the same direction as the vector. it will be the unit vector in the direction of the vector times the magnitude of the vector.
Why A unit vector is a vector but a vector is not a unit vector?
A unit vector is one which has a magnitude of 1 and is often indicated by putting a hat (or circumflex) on top of the vector symbol, for example: Unit Vector = â, â = 1.The quantity â is read as "a hat" or "a unit".
Why a unit vector is aone type of vector but a vector is not a unit vector?
A unit vector is a vector whose magnitude is one. Vectors can have magnitudes that are bigger or smaller than one so they would not be unit vectors.
What is resolution of vector?
Spliting up of vector into its rectangular components is called resolution of vector
What is meant by null vector?
a vector with nothing in it
