What else can I help you with?
Is it possible to add three vector of equal magnitude but different directions to get a null vector?
Consider an equilateral triangle. If each vector started at the center of the triangle and went through a different vertex than the other two vectors then they would cancel. I believe in order for them to add to a null vector they must be co-planer.
When drawing a vector using the triangle method of addition how do you draw in the resultant vector?
When drawing a vector using the triangle method you will draw in the resultant vector using Pythagorean theorem. This is taught in physics.
Can the triangle law of vector addition be used for many vectors?
no because triangle only contain three vectors and if many vector are added then they cant form a triangle
What is the vector triangle?
The "vector triangle" illustrates the "dot product" of two vectors, represented as sides of a triangle and the enclosed angle. This can be calculated using the law of cosines. (see link)
What is the triangle law of vectors?
If three vectors form a triangle , their vector sum is zero.
What is triangle law in vectors?
The triangle law states that if two vectors are represented as two sides of a triangle, then the resultant of the vectors is represented by the third side of the triangle, drawn from the initial point of the first vector to the terminal point of the second vector. It is used to calculate the resultant of two vectors by parallelogram law.
Why in dot product you use cos and in vector product sin?
We use the dot product cos and in vector we use the vector product sin because of the trigonometric triangle.
What is the difference between parallelogram law of vector addition n triangle law of vector addition?
There is basically no difference. They are nothing more than 2 different visualizations of how we can graphically add two vectors.strictly if we say there is one and only difference is that---Triangle law of vector addition states that when 2 vectors r acting as the adjacent sides of a triangle taken in order. third side of the triangle will give the magnitude of th resultant 7 direction is in opposite order.Parallelogram law of vector addition states that if 2 vectors r acting as the adjacent sides of a parallelogram, then the diagonal of parallelogram from the point of intersection of two vectors represent their resultant magnitude & direction.
State and explain triangle law of vector?
if two vectors are represented in magnitude and direction by the two sides of a triangle taken in one order ,their resultant vector is represented by the third side of the triangles taken in reverse order
What is different between negative vector and null vector?
A null vector has no magnitude, a negative vector does have a magnitude but it is in the direction opposite to that of the reference vector.
What is opposite to vector addition and subtraction?
The opposite of vector addition is vector subtraction, while the opposite of vector subtraction is vector addition. In vector addition, two vectors combine to form a resultant vector, whereas in vector subtraction, one vector is removed from another, resulting in a different vector. These operations are fundamental in vector mathematics and physics, illustrating how vectors can be combined or separated in different contexts.
What does vector mean in science terms?
Any physical quantity which has both direction and magnitude is called a vector. A quantity must also obey the 'Triangle law of vector addition' to be called as a vector. For example displacement is a vector, u can say a person moved 5 km (magnitude) along west(direction). But electric current is not a vector, it has magnitude and its direction is from +ve terminal to -ve terminal but it doesn't obey triangle law. Rather currents are added as scalars.
