What are different conditions that could make vector product zero?
First of all, you have to define what you mean by "vector product".-- The "dot product" is zero if the vectors are perpendicular, regardless of their magnitudes.-- The "cross product" is zero if the vectors are collinear or opposite, regardless of their magnitudes.-- Perhaps when you say "product", you mean the "result" of two vectors, whicha mathematician or physicist would cal their "sum".The sum of two vectors is zero if their magnitudes are equal and their directionsdiffer by 180 degrees.An infinite number of other possibilities exist for a sum of zero, depending on themagnitudes and directions of two vectors.
If AxB is zero and A and B are non zero then prove that A is parallel to B?
If A and B are vectors then AxB=ABsin(AB). If A and B are not zero then AxB is zero if and only if sin(AB)=0 meaning the angle between A and B is a multiple of 180 degrees, in other words parallel.
Can two vectors having different magnitudes be combined to give a zero resultant can three vectors?
Yes, two vectors of different magnitudes can be combined to give a zero resultant if they are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. For three vectors to give a zero resultant, they must form a closed triangle or meet at a common point where the sum of the vectors equals zero.
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.
Can the resultant of two vectors be equal to zero?
Yes. A vector has magnitude and direction. If the vectors have equal magnitude and directly opposite directions their sum will be zero.
When are vectors said to be perpendicular?
Perpendicular means that the angle between the two vectors is 90 degrees - a right angle. If you have the vectors as components, just take the dot product - if the dot product is zero, that means either that the vectors are perpendicular, or that one of the vectors has a magnitude of zero.

What is the value of scalar product of two vectors A and B where value of vector A and B is not zero and vector product of two vectors A and B is not zero?
Scalar product = (magnitude of 'A') times (magnitude of 'B') times (cosine of the angle between 'A' and 'B')
What is the dot product of two perpendicular vectors?
zero is the answer
What is the difference between orthogonal and orthonormal vectors?
All vectors that are perpendicular (their dot product is zero) are orthogonal vectors.Orthonormal vectors are orthogonal unit vectors. Vectors are only orthonormal if they are both perpendicular have have a length of 1.
If AxB is zero and A and B are non zero then prove that A is parallel to B?
If A and B are vectors then AxB=ABsin(AB). If A and B are not zero then AxB is zero if and only if sin(AB)=0 meaning the angle between A and B is a multiple of 180 degrees, in other words parallel.
If Three vectors are co-planner then there product is?
Zero
Dot product of two perpendicular vectors?
Zero.
Can dotproduct of two vectors be negative?
The dot-product of two vectors tells about the angle between them. If the dot-product is positive, then the angle between the two vectors is between 0 and 90 degrees. When the dot-product is negative, the angle is more than 90 degrees. Therefore, the dot-product can be any value (positive, negative, or zero). For example, the dot product of the vectors and is -1*1+1*0+1*0 = -1 which is negative.
Why you use cosine theta with cross product?
Normally you use sine theta with the cross product and cos theta with the vector product, so that the cross product of parallel vectors is zero while the dot product of vectors at right angles is zero.
When the angle between two vectors is equal to zero?
When the angle between two vectors is zero ... i.e. the vectors are parallel ... their sum is a vector in thesame direction, and with magnitude equal to the sum of the magnitudes of the two original vectors.
When the vector product of two vectors is zero?
When they point in the same direction.
