Answer:

\frac{10\hat{i}}{\sqrt5}-\frac{20\hat{j}}{\sqrt5}

Explanation:

We are given that a  vector

\vec{v}=\hat{i}-2\hat{j}

We have to find a vector which is parallel to given vector and has magnitude 10.

\mid \vec{v}\mid=\sqrt(1)^2+(-2)^2=\sqrt5

\hat{v}=\frac{\vec{v}}{\mid \vec{v}\mid}

\hat{v}=\frac{\hat{i}-2\hat{j}}{\sqrt5}

We are given that a vector has magnitude= 10

10\cdot\hat{v}=\frac{10\hat{i}}{\sqrt5}-\frac{20\hat{j}}{\sqrt5}

Hence, the vector parallel to given vector with magnitude 10 is given by

\frac{10\hat{i}}{\sqrt5}-\frac{20\hat{j}}{\sqrt5}
