What is it called when vectors are added or subtracted?
resultant
How do you combine vectors?
by head to tail rule they are added
Which is accurate in adding vectors graphical or arithmetic?
graphical is accurate because the vectors added are drawn according to a specified scale.
What is the rule for adding vectors?
The general rule for adding vectors is to hook them together "head to tail" and then draw in a resultant vector. The resultant will have the magnitude and direction that represents the sum of the two vectors that were added.
Can vectors be added to each other?
Yes, two vectors of similar kind can be added. For example we can add a distance vector with another distance vector. But we cannot add distance vector and velocity vector.
Can any two vectors be added or subtracted?
Yes, all vectors can be added or subtracted.
Can Vectors be added together scalar quantities cannot?
Vectors can be added to other vectors in the same vector space. Scalars can be added to other scalars if they have the same units. Scalars cannot be added to vectors, nor vice versa, directly.
When are magnitudes of vectors added?
when the vectors have the same direction
When are magnitudes of two vectors added?
when the vectors have the same direction
Is it possible the add a vector and scalar?
no!!!only scalars and scalars and only vectors and vectors can be added.
What is it called when vectors are added or subtracted?
resultant
How do you combine vectors?

Adding vectors that act in the opposite direction?
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.
Which is accurate in adding vectors graphical or arithmetic?
graphical is accurate because the vectors added are drawn according to a specified scale.
When two equal and opposite vectors are added their resultant vector has zero magnitude.What is the direction of this resultant?
Thee direction of the two vectors.
How do you add to vectors?
Vectors are added by components; z1 + z2 = a1 + ib1 +a2 +ib2 = (a1 + a2) + i (b1 + b2)
Is the order of addition important when three or more vectors are added?
No it has no effect.
