To add vectors on the same line, simply add their components together. If you have two vectors represented as (a1, a2) and (b1, b2), their sum would be (a1 + b1, a2 + b2). This is known as the component method of vector addition.
true
Yes, it is possible to add any two vectors as long as they have the same number of dimensions. The result of adding two vectors is a new vector whose components are the sum of the corresponding components of the original vectors.
Non-proportional vectors are vectors that do not have a constant scalar multiple relationship between them. In other words, they do not lie on the same line or in the same direction. Non-proportional vectors are linearly independent and have different magnitudes and directions.
The term for vectors pointing in different directions is called linearly independent vectors. These vectors do not lie on the same line or plane, and they provide unique information to describe a space.
The combined displacement vector would be 8 meters in the same direction as the individual vectors, as you simply add the magnitudes of the vectors together.
Yes, you can add vectors of equal length. Make sure they are equal by both of them having the same magnitude and direction. Otherwise, you can add equal vectors.
Because scalars do not take in the direction but just the magnitude while vectors can. You can add vectors ONLY if they are in the same direction.

Coplanar vectors lie within the same plane, meaning they can be represented by arrows with their tails at the same point. Collinear vectors, on the other hand, lie along the same line, meaning they have the same or opposite directions. In essence, coplanar vectors can be parallel or intersecting within the same plane, while collinear vectors are always parallel or antiparallel along the same line.

Yes.

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.
The combined displacement vector would be 8 meters in the same direction as the individual vectors, as you simply add the magnitudes of the vectors together.
Two vectors that lie along the same line-apex
No, it is simpler than that. Simply add the two magnitudes. The direction will be the same as the parallel vectors.
