What is a zero vector?
A zero vector is a vector whose value in every dimension is zero.
How can a null vector be a vector if there is no direction?
A null vector does not have a direction but still satisfies the properties of a vector, namely having magnitude and following vector addition rules. It is often used to represent the absence of displacement or a zero result in a vector operation.
What is the Minimum number of vectors with unequal magnitudes whose vector sum can be zero?
-- A singe vector with a magnitude of zero produces a zero resultant.-- Two vectors with equal magnitudes and opposite directions produce a zero resultant.
A B 0 what can you say about the components of the two vectors?
The vectors A and B seem to be two-dimensional with components in the x and y directions. The components of vector A are A_x and A_y, while the components of vector B are B_x and B_y. The 0 value suggests that one or both of the vectors have a component equal to zero.
Can you find a vector quantity that has a magnitude of zero but components that are different from zero?
No, that's not possible - at least, not with vectors over real numbers. The magnitude of a vector of components a, b, c, d, for example, is the square root of (a2 + b2 + c2 + d2), and as soon as any of those numbers is different from zero, its square, the sum, and the square root of the sum will all be positive. It is not possible (in the real numbers) to compensate this with a negative number, since the square of a real number can only be zero or positive. Another answer: In special relativity we use a metric for vectors different from the Euclidean one mentioned above. If (t, x, y, z) is a 4-vector in Minkowski space the squared "length" is defined as t2 - x2 - y2 - z2. As you can see this can be negative (for spacelike vectors), positive (for timelike vectors) or zero (for null, or lightlike vectors). See related link for more information
Is vector A parallel vector B given that vector A is equal to the zero vector and vector B is equal to the zero vector?
The zero vector is both parallel and perpendicular to any other vector. V.0 = 0 means zero vector is perpendicular to V and Vx0 = 0 means zero vector is parallel to V.
What is a zero vector?
A zero vector is a vector whose value in every dimension is zero.
What is the difference between zero and vector zero?
The zero vector occurs in any dimensional space and acts as the vector additive identity element. It in one dimensional space it can be <0>, and in two dimensional space it would be<0,0>, and in n- dimensional space it would be <0,0,0,0,0,....n of these> The number 0 is a scalar. It is the additive identity for scalars. The zero vector has length zero. Scalars don't really have length. ( they can represent length of course, such as the norm of a vector) We can look at the distance from the origin, but then aren't we thinking of them as vectors? So the zero vector, even <0>, tells us something about direction since it is a vector and the zero scalar does not. Now I think and example will help. Add the vectors <2,2> and <-2,-2> and you have the zero vector. That is because we are adding two vectors of the same magnitude that point in opposite direction. The zero vector and be considered to point in any direction. So in summary we have to state the obvious, the zero vector is a vector and the number zero is a scalar.
Can the component of a non-zero vector be zero?
Yes, the component of a non-zero vector can be zero. A non-zero vector can have one or more components equal to zero while still having a non-zero magnitude overall. For example, in a two-dimensional space, the vector (0, 5) has a zero component in the x-direction but is still a non-zero vector since its y-component is non-zero.
Can a vector have a component equal to zero and still have a nonzero magnitude?
Yes. For instance, the 2-dimensional vector (1,0) has length sqrt(1+0) = 1 A vector only has zero magnitude when all its components are 0.
How do you define and identify Zero property of multiplication?
Any number times zero is zero. a x 0 = 0
Can a vector have zero magnitude if one of its components is nonzero?
A vector comprises its components, which are orthogonal. If just one of them has magnitude and direction, then the resultant vector has magnitude and direction. Example:- If A is a vector and Ax is zero and Ay is non-zero then, A=Ax+Ay A=0+Ay A=Ay
Which vector have no magnitude?
The zero vector has no magnitude. v= Io + Jo + k0 has no magnirude |V|= sqroot(o^2 + 0^2 + 0^2)=0.
Define zero exponent?
Except for 0. Anything raised to the 0 power equals 1
Why null vector is called vector?
The same sort of reasoning that zero is a number. It ensures that the set of all vectors is closed under addition and that, in turn, allows the generalization of many operations on vectors.Also, the way we got around the concept of having something with zero magnitude also have a direction is pretty cool. We made it up! In abstract algebra it's perfectly OK to constrain a specific algebraic structure with rules (called axioms) that the structure must follow.In your example, the algebraic structure that vectors are in is called a "vector space." One of the axioms that define a vector space is:"An element, 0, called the null vector, exists in a vector space, v, such that v + 0 = vfor all of the vectors in the vector space."Ta Da!! Aren't we clever?
How can a null vector be a vector if there is no direction?
A null vector does not have a direction but still satisfies the properties of a vector, namely having magnitude and following vector addition rules. It is often used to represent the absence of displacement or a zero result in a vector operation.
