What is parallelogram method?
parallelogram method is a common way of adding two vectors
What could be the weakness or disadvantages of the tail-to-tip method of adding vectors?
order of placement ( addition ) does NOTmatter
What are the tail - to - tip method?
The tail-to-tip method is used when adding vectors on a graph. With the tip-to-tail method you must place the tail of B so that it touches the tip of A.
What could be a weakness or disadvantage of the head to tail method of adding vectors?
a good one is I wanted a dessert but i had to digest my dinner properly first
When adding vectors what do you have to be certain in?
Numerical value and direction
What is parallelogram method?
parallelogram method is a common way of adding two vectors
When do you need to use component method for vector addition?
when the vectors are not all pointing in the same direction
How resolution of vector is used in applying the component methods in adding vectors?
The related question has a nice detail of this. Each vector is resolved into component vectors. For 2-dimensions, it is an x-component and a y-component. Then the respective components are added. These added components make up the resultant vector.

How you can add the vectors?
1) Graphically. Move one of the vectors (without rotating it) so that its tail coincides with the head of the other vector. 2) Analytically (mathematically), by adding components. For example, in two dimensions, separate each vector into an x-component and a y-component, and add the components of the different vectors.
Does the order of adding vectors affects the magnitude and direction of the vectors?
No. The order of adding vectors does not affect the magnitude or direction. of the result.
How do you add vectors using the component method?
1) Separate the vectors into components (if they are not already expressed as components). 2) Add each of the components separately. 3) If required, convert the vectors back to some other form. For twodimensional vectors, that would polar form.
What are the tail - to - tip method?
The tail-to-tip method is used when adding vectors on a graph. With the tip-to-tail method you must place the tail of B so that it touches the tip of A.
How do you subtract vectors?
it depends on the method of subtraction. If the vectors are drawn graphically then you must add the negative of the second vector (same magnitude, different direction) tail to tip with the first vector. If the drawing is to scale, then the resultant vector is the difference. If you are subtracting two vectors <x1, y1> - <x2, y2> then you can subtract them component by component just like scalars. The same rules apply to 3-dimensional vectors

What are the method in adding vector?
The method in adding vectors is "add like components to likes".For example A= Ia1 + Ja2 + Ka3 and B= Ib1 + Jb2 + Kb3 added is :A+B= I(a1 +b1) + J(a2 + b2) + K(a3 + b3).I, J and K are the vector components.Physics really involves vectors V and scalars S called Quaternions Q=S +V.The method is the same but now likes include vectors and scalars.Q1 + Q2 = (S1 +S2) + (V1 + V2).
To find the BLANK solution when adding vectors?
To find the __________ solution when adding vectors, simply draw and label the given information..... graphical.
