when the vectors have the same direction
The magnitudes of two vectors are added when calculating the resultant magnitude of their vector sum. This can be done using the Pythagorean theorem, where the magnitude of the resultant vector is the square root of the sum of the squares of the magnitudes of the individual vectors.
Yes, two vectors of different magnitudes can give a zero resultant if they are in opposite directions and have magnitudes that cancel each other out when added together. This is known as vector subtraction.
If all magnitudes are different, then minimum is three.
-- A singe vector with a magnitude of zero produces a zero resultant.-- Two vectors with equal magnitudes and opposite directions produce a zero resultant.
Two displacement vectors of magnitudes are two directed line segments that show the distance and direction between two points, representing a change in position. They can be added or subtracted using the parallelogram rule to find the resultant displacement.

When two vectors with different magnitudes and opposite directions are added :-- The magnitude of the sum is the difference in the magnitudes of the two vectors.-- The direction of the sum is the direction of the larger of the two vectors.
The range of possible values of the resultant of two vectors is from the magnitude of the difference of the magnitudes of the two vectors to the sum of the magnitudes of the two vectors. This range occurs when the two vectors are in the same direction or in opposite directions, respectively.
Two.Equal magnitudes in opposite directions.
No, the magnitudes of the sum of two vectors are generally greater than or equal to the sum of the magnitudes of the individual vectors. The triangle inequality states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the remaining side, which applies to vector addition as well.
Yes, two vectors with different magnitudes can be combined to give a zero resultant if they are in opposite directions. However, it is not possible for three vectors with different magnitudes to give a zero resultant because they must have specific magnitudes and directions to cancel each other out completely.
Not really. The sum of the magnitudes is a scalar, not a vector - so they can't be equal. But the sum of the two vectors can have the same magnitude, if both vectors point in the same direction.
