It has magnitude 0 and a direction and obeys vector laws, so is a vector
The null vector is a special case where both magnitude and direction are undefined. This vector represents a point in space, rather than a physical quantity with magnitude and direction.
A negative vector is a vector that has the opposite direction of the original vector but the same magnitude. It is obtained by multiplying the original vector by -1. In other words, if the original vector points in a certain direction, the negative vector points in the exact opposite direction.
The vector shows the direction and magnitude of motion of an object. The direction is represented by the direction of the vector arrow, and the magnitude is represented by the length of the vector.
A vector is described by magnitude and direction (a scalar has only magnitude).
It has both velocity and direction. A vector has direction and magnitude.
NULL VECTOR::::null vector is avector of zero magnitude and arbitrary direction the sum of a vector and its negative vector is a null vector...
The sum of two null vectors is a null vector. And since a direction is not relevant for a null vector, the resultant has no direction either.
no,zero cannot be added to a null vector because zero is scalar but null vector is a vector,although null vector has zero magnitude but it has direction due to which it is called a 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.
The null vector is a special case where both magnitude and direction are undefined. This vector represents a point in space, rather than a physical quantity with magnitude and direction.
There are two possible answers to this; a) It has no direction b) It points in all directions Answer a is really more true, as the notion of a null vector precludes any notion of a direction, but the correct answer is b.

No, a vector cannot be added to a scalar. You could multiply a null vector by zero (and you'd get the null vector), but you can't add them.
Yes, you can add anything to null vector.
Zero is a number (a scalar quantity without unit) while zero vector (or null vector) is a vector quantity having zero magnitude and arbitrary direction.
Yes, any number can be added to a null vector.
If the scalar is > 1 the resultant vector will be larger and in the same direction. = 1 the resultant vector will be the same as the original vector. between 0 and 1 the resultant vector will be smaller and in the same direction. = 0 the resultant vector will be null. If the scalar is less than 0, then the pattern will be the same as above except that the direction of the resultant will be reversed.
