The unit vector is a vector whose magnitude is 1.
Yes, a unit vector can have negative component since a unit vector has same magnitude and direction as a negative unit vector. Here is the general work out of the problem: Let |v| be the norm of (v1, v2). Then, the unit vector is (v1/|v|, v2/|v|). Determine the "modulus" or the norm |(v1/|v|, v2/|v|)| to get 1, which is the new norm. If we determine the norm of |(-v1/|v|, -v2/|v|)|, we still have the same norm 1.
A signal is said to be orthonormal when two vector are perpendicular and having unit length.
A unit line segment would have vector <1/2,sqrt(3)/2>.

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.
No, the vector (I j k) is not a unit vector. In the context of unit vectors, a unit vector has a magnitude of 1. The vector (I j k) does not have a magnitude of 1.
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".
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.
The unit vector is a vector whose magnitude is 1.
Yes.
Vector Unit was created in 2007.
The vector obtained by dividing a vector by its magnitude is called a unit vector. Unit vectors have a magnitude of 1 and represent only the direction of the original vector.
a vector having unit magnitude and have a certain direction.
No, by definiton, a unit vector is a vector with a magnitude equal to unity.
A vector of magnitude 1.
False.
