To find the scalar product of two unit vectors meeting at an angle of 90 degrees, you can use the formula for the dot product:
Dot product = (Magnitude of the first vector) * (Magnitude of the second vector) * cos(angle between them).
Since the given vectors are unit vectors, their magnitudes are both equal to 1. Additionally, when two vectors meet at a right angle, the angle between them is 90 degrees, and the cosine of 90 degrees is 0.
Therefore, substituting the values into the formula:
Dot product = (1) * (1) * cos(90 degrees)
= 1 * 1 * 0
= 0
So, the scalar product of unit vectors meeting at a 90-degree angle is 0. Therefore, the answer is 0.
