Is it possible to add three vectors of equal magnitudes and get zero?

Of course it is! for example, [1, √3] + [-2, 0] + [1, - √3 ] = [0, 0]. Like this example, all other sets of such vectors will form an equilateral triangle on the graph.. Actually connecting the endpoints of the 3 vectors forms the equilateral triangle. The vectors are actually 120° apart.


Can the resultant magnitude of 2 vectors be smaller than either of the vectors?

Yes. As an extreme example, if you add two vectors of the same magnitude, which point in the opposite direction, you get a vector of magnitude zero as a result.


How do you add vectors using the component method?

1) Separate the vectors into components (if they are not already expressed as components). 2) Add each of the components separately. 3) If required, convert the vectors back to some other form. For twodimensional vectors, that would polar form.


What is the sum of two or more vectors?

You can use the parallelgram rule, or if you have the vectors written as components you can just add them. If you give me an example I will help more Doctor Chuck


Why are some vectors pseudo vectors and some real vectors?

Answer: There are no "pseudo vectors" there are pseudo "rules". For example the right hand rule for vector multiplication. If you slip in the left hand rule then the vector becomes a pseudo vector under the right hand rule. Answer: A pseudo vector is one that changes direction when it is reflected. This affects all vectors that represent rotations, as well as, in general, vectors that are the result of a cross product.

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

Yes, it can.A simple example as when two vectors of the same magnitude act at an angle of 120 degrees to one another.

How do you do rotation in math?

A vector rotation in math is done on a coordinate plane.2D vectors can be rotated using the cross and dot product.3D vectors are rotated using matrix based quaternion math.
