Question

If $$\omega = \frac{z}{{z - \frac{1}{3}i}}\,{\text{and }}\left| \omega \right| = 1,$$     then $$z$$ lies on

A. an ellipse
B. a circle
C. a straight line  
D. a parabola
Answer :   a straight line
Solution :
As given $$w = \frac{z}{{z - \frac{1}{3}i}}$$
$$ \Rightarrow \,\,\left| w \right| = \frac{{\left| z \right|}}{{\left| {z - \frac{1}{3}i} \right|}} = 1$$
⇒ distance of $$z$$ from origin and point $$\left( {0,\frac{1}{3}} \right)$$  is same hence $$z$$ lies on bisector of the line joining points (0, 0) and $$\left( {0,\frac{1}{3}} \right).$$
Hence $$z$$ lies on a straight line.
