A vector always consists of a direction and magnitude. For example, a vector representing the weight of an object that is 35N would be represented as an arrow pointing downward with a magnitude of 35N. You could also represent the weight of 35N as -35N, in which the negative symbol indicates a downward force.

Can a vector have a zero magnitude if all of its components are zero?

If all the components of a vector are zero, the magnitude of the vector will always be zero.


Vector component greater than the vectors magnitude?

A vector component can never be greater than the vector's magnitude. The magnitude of a vector is the length of the vector and is always greater than or equal to any of its individual components.


Can the magnitude of a vector has negative value?

No, the magnitude of a vector is always a positive value or zero. It represents the length of the vector and is a scalar quantity. Negative values are not associated with the magnitude of a vector.

Is possession of magnitude and direction sufficient for calling a quantity a vector explain?

No, possession of magnitude and direction alone is not always sufficient for calling a quantity a vector. A vector must also obey the rules of vector addition and scalar multiplication to be considered a true vector in physics and mathematics.


What is augmented vector?

An augmented vector is a vector that is augmented with an extra dimension. This new dimension always takes on the value of 1. e.g. X = (5, 2) X' = (5, 2, 1) where X' is the augmented form of vector X.


What is the magnitude of a unit vector and how is it calculated?

The magnitude of a unit vector is always 1. To calculate the magnitude of a vector, you can use the formula: magnitude sqrt(x2 y2 z2), where x, y, and z are the components of the vector in three-dimensional space.
