If a unit vector is represented as $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{u}}=0 \cdot 4 \hat{\imath}+0 \cdot 7 \hat{\jmath}+\mathrm{c} \hat{k}$, then the value of ' $\mathrm{c}$ ' is
  1. $\sqrt{0 \cdot 11}$
  2. $\sqrt{0 \cdot 25}$
  3. $\sqrt{0 \cdot 65}$
  4. $\sqrt{0 \cdot 35}$

Solution

$\sqrt{0.4^{2}+0.7^{2}+c^{2}}=1$ Thus, $\mathrm{c}^{2}=1-0.65=0.35$, or $\mathrm{c}=\sqrt{0.35}$ *
