What is the difference between orthogonal and orthonormal vectors?
All vectors that are perpendicular (their dot product is zero) are orthogonal vectors.Orthonormal vectors are orthogonal unit vectors. Vectors are only orthonormal if they are both perpendicular have have a length of 1.
If the sum of the two unit vectors is also a unit vector find the magnitude of their difference?
resultant
If A and B are two unit vectors and is the angle between them Then A B is a unit vector Find?
Your question is kind of confusing, but if you're asking what the angle between two unit vectors A and B is, then the answer is: the inverse cosine of the dot products of A and B.
What are unit vectors used for in real life?
In real life unit vectors are used for directions, e.g east, north and up(zenith). The unit vector specifies the direction. Gyroscopes maintain a direction and keep things level. Whenever and where ever location is important, unit vectors are a part of real life. Whenever directions are important in your real life, then unit vectors are important. If everything was confined to move along a straight line, then unit vectors would not be important. If you can move in a plane, then unit vectors are important. Moving in space, unit vectors are more important. cars, ships and planes all move in space. Controlling and tracking these all involve unit vectors.
