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.
Is it possible to combine two unequal vectors to give a zero resultant?
No.
Is it possible to add two vectors having different magnitudes and yield zero resultant?
It is certain that two vectors of different magnitudes cannot yield a zero resultant force.
What is the maximum possible resultant of two vectors with magnitudes of 4 and 5?

Is it possible for two vectors that their resultant be greater than their algebric sum?

Suppose you have two vectors that have different magnitudes can the vectors sum ever be zero?
No. The largest possible resultant magnitude is the sum of the individual magnitudes.The smallest possible resultant magnitude is the difference of the individual magnitudes.
Can the resultant of two vectors of the same magnitude be equal to the magnitude of either of the vector. How?
Yes - if the vectors are at an angle of 60 degrees. In that case, the two vectors, and the resultant, form an equilateral triangle.Yes - if the vectors are at an angle of 60 degrees.

What is the maximum possible resultant of two vectors with the magnitudes of 4 and 5 units?
The maximum resultant is when both vectors are in the same direction. In this case, you just add 4 and 5.
Is resultant a vector quantity?
The resultant of two vectors cannot be a scalar quantity.
What should be the angle between two vectors of magnitudes 8 and 8 units so that their resultant has a magnitude of 20 units?
It is not possible. The maximum magnitude is obtained when the vectors are aligned and in this case the resultant has a magnitude which is the sum of the individual vectors. In the given example, the maximum possible magnitude for the resultant is 16 units. In general |a+b| <= |a| + |b| where a, b are vectors and |a| is the magnitude of a
Ten vectors together add to give a zero resultant it is possible that nine of these vectors are on the same plane but the tenth is not on this plane?
No. The tenth vector would have to be matched by one equal and opposite vector to yield a zero resultant, or by multiple vectors in the second plain collectively yielding a zero resultant for that plane. It would be possible, for example, for 8 vectors to be on the same plane and two on a different plane to give a zero resultant.
