Two vectors: no. Three vectors: yes.
Two or more vectors combine to form a resultant sum; V1 + V2 + ...+ Vn = VR
-- The minimum magnitude that can result from the combination of two vectors is the difference between their magnitudes. If their magnitudes are different, then they can't combine to produce zero. -- But three or more vectors with different magnitudes can combine to produce a zero magnitude.
No.
Yes, if they are pointing in opposite directions (separated by 180°).

No.
No, it is not possible to combine two vectors of different magnitudes to give a zero resultant. However, it is possible to combine three or more vectors of different magnitudes and directions to give a zero resultant if they form a closed polygon or if they are in equilibrium.
No, velocity and force vectors do not directly combine. Velocity is a vector that describes the rate at which an object changes its position, while force is a vector that causes an object to accelerate. The combination of force and velocity results in changes to an object's motion, such as acceleration or deceleration.
The effect is called vector addition. This process involves combining the magnitudes and directions of the individual vectors to determine the resulting vector.
The combined displacement vector would be 8 meters in the same direction as the individual vectors, as you simply add the magnitudes of the vectors together.
The combination of two or more vectors results in a new vector known as the resultant vector. This resultant vector is found by adding or subtracting the individual vectors' magnitudes and directions.
The combined displacement vector will have a magnitude of 8m. This is found by simply adding the magnitudes of the two original displacement vectors together (3m + 5m = 8m), since they are in the same direction.
8m in the same direction.
Yes, if they are pointing in opposite directions (separated by 180°).
