The position vectors of the points A and B, relative to an origin O, are given by
\(\overrightarrow{OA} = \begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 0 \\ 2 \end{pmatrix}\) and \(\overrightarrow{OB} = \begin{pmatrix} k \\ -k \\ 2k \end{pmatrix}\),
where \(k\) is a constant.
- In the case where \(k = 2\), calculate angle \(AOB\).
- Find the values of \(k\) for which \(\overrightarrow{AB}\) is a unit vector.
