Yes. This will happen if the two vectors are at an angle of 120 degrees.
Yes, it can.A simple example as when two vectors of the same magnitude act at an angle of 120 degrees to one another.
1. When the two vectors are parlell the magnitude of resultant vector R=A+B. 2. When the two vectors are having equal magnitude and they are antiparlell then R=A-A=0. For more information: thrinath_dadi@yahoo.com
(Magnitude of the vector)2 = sum of the squares of the component magnituides Let's say the components are 'A' and 'B', and the magnitude of the vector is 'C'. Then C2 = A2 + B2 You have said that C = A, so C2 = C2 + B2 B2 = 0 B = 0 The other component is zero.
Theortically, should be the same.
No. The tenth vector would have to be matched by one equal and opposite vector to yield a zero resultant, or by multiple vectors in the second plain collectively yielding a zero resultant for that plane. It would be possible, for example, for 8 vectors to be on the same plane and two on a different plane to give a zero resultant.
yes
Yes. If the two vectors are two sides of an equilateral triangle, then the resultant is the third side and therefore equal in magnitude.
Yes, it can.A simple example as when two vectors of the same magnitude act at an angle of 120 degrees to one another.
Magnitude? Yes. Simple answer: think of it as a triangle. Can a triangle have three sides of the same length? Yes. Long answer: there really isn't a long answer. To get the resultant of two vectors, one would add up the components of each vector. While it is impossible to add two vectors of the same magnitude and derive a resultant of the same magnitude AND DIRECTION as one of the vectors, one need only to create a directional difference of exactly 60 degrees between the first two vectors to result in a resultant of like magnitude. Math really is the most perfect language. Vectors are to triangles what optics are to to the study of conics!
Yes. Imagine an equilateral triangle. If two vectors are in the directions - and lengths - of two of the sides, the resultant will be the third side (depending on the directions chosen, of course).
If the directions of two vectors with equal magnitudes differ by 120 degrees, then the magnitude of their sum is equal to the magnitude of either vector.
If both vectors are of the same magnitude, and the resultant is equal to one, then all three are equal. This describes an equilateral triangle.Since the angles of a triangle must sum to 180, the three angles of an equilateral triangle are all 60 degrees.
at 120 degree
Yes - if the vectors are at an angle of 60 degrees. In that case, the two vectors, and the resultant, form an equilateral triangle.Yes - if the vectors are at an angle of 60 degrees.

If the sum of their components in any two orthogonal directions is zero, the resultant is zero. Alternatively, show that the resultant of any two vectors has the same magnitude but opposite direction to the third.
Equal vectors are vectors having same direction of action or orientation as well as same magnitude. If two or more vectors have same magnitude but different direction then they cannot be called equal vectors. This shows that direction is important for equal vectors.
Yes. As an extreme example, if you add two vectors of the same magnitude, which point in the opposite direction, you get a vector of magnitude zero as a result.
