Yes. Any number of vectors, two or more, can result in zero, if their magnitudes

and directions are just right. One vector can result in zero only if its magnitude

is zero.

Is it possible to combine two vectors of different magnitude to give a zero resultant if not can three vectors be combine?

Two vectors: no. Three vectors: yes.


How can you add three vectors of equal magnitude in a plane such as their resultant is zero?

Take any three vectors in a plane which, when placed end-to-end form a triangle. The resultant of the three vectors will be zero.


What is the three vectors arrangement if their resultant is zero?

A triangle of vectors, in which the sides are the three vectors arranged head-tail.


Can three vectors of different magnitude be combined to give a zero resultant and can three vectors?

Yes.

The vector sum of three vectors gives a resultant equal to zero What can you say about the vectors?

With three vectors spaced 120 degrees apart and with identical magnitudes the vector sum will be 0.


Can three vectors of equal magnitude be combined to give a zero resultant?

Yes, put the three vectors in a plane, with a separation of 120 degrees between each vector and each of the other vectors.


Can three vectors lying in plane give zero resultant?

yes the resultant of the two vectors can be zero.it can be illustrated by drawing following diagram.a triangle may be considered as a vector diagram in which the force polygon close and the resultant of the three vectors is zero.


Cross product is not difine in two space why?

When performing the cross product of two vectors (vector A and vector B), one of the properites of the resultant vector C is that it is perpendicular to both vectors A & B. In two dimensional space, this is not possible, because the resultant vector will be perpendicular to the plane that A & B reside in. Using the (i,j,k) unit vector notation, you could add a 0*k to each vector when doing the cross product, and the resultant vector will have zeros for the i & jcomponents, and only have k components.Two vectors define a plane, and their cross product is always a vector along the normal to that plane, so the three vectors cannot lie in a 2D space which is a plane.


How do you prove three vectors are equal to zero?

If the sum of their components in any two orthogonal directions is zero, the resultant is zero. Alternatively, show that the resultant of any two vectors has the same magnitude but opposite direction to the third.
