Find a vector of magnitude of 5 units parallel to the resultant of the vector and



Let resultant vector is ‘R’ so the resultant vector by using the vector triangle law




If a vector parallel to other vector so we can write scalar multiple of the other so,


=


= has a magnitude of 5 unit so







So the vector is =
