Can you add zero to a null vector?
scalar cannot be added to a vector quantity
Is it possible to add a scalar to a vector?
It is not possible the addition of scalars as well as vectors because vector quantities are magnitude as well as direction and scalar quantities are the only magnitude; they have no directions at all. Addition is possible between scalar to scalar and vector to vector. Under some circumstances, you may be able to treat scalar quantities as being along some previously undefined dimension of a vector quantity, and add them that way. For example, you can treat time as a vector along the t-axis and add it to an xyz position vector in 3-space to come up with a four-dimensional spacetime vector.
Is scalar quantiy is added with vector quantity?
A scalar quantity added to a vector quantity is a complex quantity. An example is a complex number z = a + ib, a is the scalar and ib is the vector quantity.If the vector quantity is 3 dimensional, ib + jc + kd, then the scalar and vector forms a quaternion quantity.
Is it possible to add a vector quantity?
No, you cannot directly add two vector quantities unless they are of the same type (e.g., both displacement vectors or velocity vectors). Otherwise, vector addition requires breaking down the vectors into their components and adding corresponding components together.
Why can't you add a vector quantity to a scalar quantity?
You can add a vector quantity to a scalar quantity. A complex number is just such an addition, z= a + bi. the first term 'a' is a scalar and the second term 'bi' is a vector quantity. The complex quantity z is the sum of a scalar and a vector. z is a different quantity than 'a' or 'bi', it contains both a scalar and a vector z=(a,bi). The Universe is made up of such additions called Quaternions: Q= a + bi + cj + kd , 'a' is a scalar and i, j and k are vectors making bi + cj +dk a three dimensional vector. Quaternions are four dimensional, one scalar dimension and three vector dimensions. Complex Numbers, z, a 2 dimensional number, are a subset of Quaternions.
Is it possible to add any two vector?
YES
Is resultant a vector quantity?
The resultant of two vectors cannot be a scalar quantity.
Can scalar quantities be added together?
Yes, scalar quantities can be added, as long as they are the same dimension and you keep units straight. For example you cannot add cubic meters to square meters. But (especially in the imperial system) pounds and ounces, or feet and inches are added, and displayed in that fashion. Minutes and seconds is another.
Is it possible to add the component of a vector to the sane vector?
Yes, in which case the resulting vector is twice the length of the original, pointing in the same direction.
What is the vector quantity for mass?
It isn't, because a mass can only be positive - there are no negative masses. Also mass is only referring to one thing and this doesn't give as much information as a vector quantity. Mass is scalar.
Is it possible the add a vector and scalar?
no!!!only scalars and scalars and only vectors and vectors can be added.
Why is it impossible to add a scalar to a vector?
It is not impossible to add a scalar to a vector. e.g. e^ix = cos(x) + isin(x) when x is 0 the answer is a scalar, when x=90 degrees the answer is a vector, when x is not a multiple of 90 degrees the answer is the sum of a scalar and a vector. So it is only impossible to add a scalar to a vector when x is a multiple of 90 degrees, all other angles add a scalar to a vector.
