Absolutely.

A very simple example: 10 pounds north, 6 pounds south, 4 pounds south.

How about the resultant of 100 vectors being equal to zero, as in a tug-of-war with
50 guys on each side !

How can you add three vectors of equal magnitude in a plane such as their resultant is zero?

Take any three vectors in a plane which, when placed end-to-end form a triangle. The resultant of the three vectors will be zero.


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.


What is the three vectors arrangement if their resultant is zero?

A triangle of vectors, in which the sides are the three vectors arranged head-tail.


Can three vectors of different magnitude be combined to give a zero resultant and can three vectors?

Yes.


Is it possible to combine two vectors of different magnitude to give a zero resultant if not can three vectors be combine?

Two vectors: no. Three vectors: yes.


Can three vectors not lying in plane give zero resultant?

Yes, three vectors that do not lie in the same plane can give a zero resultant if they form a closed triangle. This can happen when the vectors cancel each other out due to their directions and magnitudes.


Can two vectors having different magnitude be compined to give a zero resultant can three vector?

Two vectors, no; three vectors yes.


How many minimum of vectors are required in space to get resultant zero?

Assuming you want non-zero vectors, two opposing vectors will give a resultant of zero.


Can three vectors lying in plane give zero resultant?

yes the resultant of the two vectors can be zero.it can be illustrated by drawing following diagram.a triangle may be considered as a vector diagram in which the force polygon close and the resultant of the three vectors is zero.

How do you prove three vectors are equal to zero?

If the sum of their components in any two orthogonal directions is zero, the resultant is zero. Alternatively, show that the resultant of any two vectors has the same magnitude but opposite direction to the third.


Can two vectors having different magnitudes be combined to give a zero resultant.is it possible for three such vectors?

Yes, two vectors with different magnitudes can be combined to give a zero resultant if they are in opposite directions. However, it is not possible for three vectors with different magnitudes to give a zero resultant because they must have specific magnitudes and directions to cancel each other out completely.
