What is the least number of non-zero vectors that can be added to give a resultant equal to zero?

Two - if you add two vectors of equal magnitude but in opposite directions, the resultant vector is zero.


Can the resultant of two vectors be equal to zero?

Yes. A vector has magnitude and direction. If the vectors have equal magnitude and directly opposite directions their sum will be zero.


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

Yes. Vectors contain both magnitude and direction. Graphically three vectors of equal magnitude added together with a zero sum would be an equilateral triangle.


When do you get the addition of two vectors equal to zero?

If they are of equal magnitude and opposite direction.


When are the magnitudes of two vectors equal to zero?

When they are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.


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 two vectors having different magnitudes be combined to give a zero resultant can three vectors?

Yes, two vectors of different magnitudes can be combined to give a zero resultant if they are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. For three vectors to give a zero resultant, they must form a closed triangle or meet at a common point where the sum of the vectors equals zero.


Can the sum of two equal vectors be equal to either of the vectors?

Only if one of them has a magnitude of zero, so, effectively, no.


When Two vectors have unequal magnitude can their sum be zero explain reason?

No two vectors of unequal magnitude cannot give the sum 0 because for 0 sum the 2 vectors must be equal and in opposite direction


What is the smallest number of vectors that can be added to give a zero resultant?

Two vectors can be added to result in a zero resultant if they are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.


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 the sum of two vectors of unequal magnitudes be a zero vector?

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.................................... Answered by: SAJJAD AHMED(bfps doha Qatar)
