How do you change the magnitude of the resultant vector between two if the angle between them decreases?

If the angle decreases, the magnitude of the resultant vector increases.

If is added to under what conditions does the resultant vector have a magnitude equal to A B?

1. When the two vectors are parlell the magnitude of resultant vector R=A+B. 2. When the two vectors are having equal magnitude and they are antiparlell then R=A-A=0. For more information: thrinath_dadi@yahoo.com


When two equal and opposite vectors are added their resultant vector has zero magnitude what is the direction of this resultant?

The zero-vector has no direction.


Can the magnitude of resultant of two vectors of the same magnitude be equal of magnitude of either vector?

yes


What is the difference between a resultant vector and a component vector?

The resultant vector describes the complete vector, magnitude and direction; while the component vector describes a single component of a vector, like the x-component. If the resultant vector has only one component, the resultant and the component are the same and there is no difference.t


Can the magnitude of the resultant of two vector be greater than the sum of magnitudes of indivisual vector?

No.


What the magnitude of resultant vector of two equal forces each of magnitude F is?

the resultant magnitude is 2 times the magnitude of F as the two forces are equal, Resultant R= F + F = 2F and the magnitude of 2F is 2F.


How do you find vector components when given the vectors are parallel and the magnitude of each vector is equal to 1?

If they are parallel, you can add them algebraically to get a resultant vector. Then you can resolve the resultant vector to obtain the vector components.


Does the resultant take into account the direction of the two vectors?

Yes, a resultant vector is the vector sum of the two vectors. It has it's own direction and magnitude.


A vector of magnitude 3 cannot be added to a vector of magnitude 4 so the magnitude of the resultant is?

How can the resultant of two vecters of the same magnitude be equal to the magnitude of either vector?

If the directions of two vectors with equal magnitudes differ by 120 degrees, then the magnitude of their sum is equal to the magnitude of either vector.
