The sum of two unequal vectors can not be zero, because we can get minimum magnitude of two vectors when they are in opposite direction and can only get zero magnitude when they are equal in magnitude....................................

Is it possible to add two vectors of unequal magnitudes an get zero?
No.
If two vectors have unequal magnitudes can their sum be zero?
No, they cannot sum to zero.
What is the minimum number of vectors with equal magnitudes whose vector sum can be zero?
Two is the minimum number of vectors that will sum to zero.
Is it possible two unequal vector to give a zero resultant?
The only way that two vectors add up to zero is if they have equal magnitude and opposite direction. If the magnitudes are not equal then no, they cannot give a zero resultant.
Can A plus B equal zero when A and B have nonzero magnitudes?
If 'A' and 'B' are vectors, and their magnitudes are equal, andtheir directions are opposite, then their vector sum is 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 a pair of vectors with unequal magnitudes ever add to zero?
No.
Is it possible to add two vectors of unequal magnitudes an get zero?
No.
If two vectors have unequal magnitudes can their sum be zero?
No, they cannot sum to zero.
Can two vectors having different magnitudes be combined to give a zero resultant.is it possible for three such vectors?
Two vectors with unequal magnitudes can't add to zero, but three or more can.
What is the minimum number of vectors with equal magnitudes whose vector sum can be zero?
Two is the minimum number of vectors that will sum to zero.
Is it possible two unequal vector to give a zero resultant?
The only way that two vectors add up to zero is if they have equal magnitude and opposite direction. If the magnitudes are not equal then no, they cannot give a zero resultant.
If two vector have equal magnitudes can their sum be zero Explain?
Sum of two vectors can only be zero if they are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. So no two vector of unequal magnitude cannot be added to give null vector. Three vectors of equal magnitude and making an angle 120 degrees with each other gives a zero resultant.
Can A plus B equal zero when A and B have nonzero magnitudes?
If 'A' and 'B' are vectors, and their magnitudes are equal, andtheir directions are opposite, then their vector sum is zero.
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 the sum of three vectors all of unequal magnitudes be a zero?
Yes. The largest vector is given a certain direction. The remaining two vectors (each different in length) when combined, equal the length of the largest, and are 180 degrees out of phase with the largest.
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.
