In a plane, each vector has only one orthogonal vector (well, two, if you count the negative of one of them). Are you sure you don't mean the normal vector which is orthogonal but outside the plane (in fact, orthogonal to the plane itself)?

How to find orthogonal vector?

Given one vector a, any vector that satisfies a.b=0 is orthogonal to it. That is a set of vectors defining a plane orthogonal to the original vector.The set of vectors defines a plane to which the original vector a is the 'normal'.


A vedtor which is perpendicular to every vector?

The zero vector is not perpendicular to all vectors, but it is orthogonal to all vectors.


What is coplanar vector?

In geometry a vector is used to make the equations easier to understand and to figure out. Velocity and force are examples of vectors. For a vector to be coplanar there must be two or more and they must be linearly dependent. Coplanar vectors have proportional components and their rank is 2.


What is the definition of orthogonal signal space?

Orthogonal signal space is defined as the set of orthogonal functions, which are complete. In orthogonal vector space any vector can be represented by orthogonal vectors provided they are complete.Thus, in similar manner any signal can be represented by a set of orthogonal functions which are complete.


Every vector can be represented as the sum of its?

Every vector can be represented as the sum of its orthogonal components. For example, in a 2D space, any vector can be expressed as the sum of two orthogonal vectors along the x and y axes. In a 3D space, any vector can be represented as the sum of three orthogonal vectors along the x, y, and z axes.


How do you name the direction of a vector?

The direction of a vector is defined in terms of its components along a set of orthogonal vectors (the coordinate axes).


Under what condition the sum of three vectors will be zero?

The sum of three vectors will be zero if they can form a closed triangle when arranged tip-to-tail. This means the vectors must have magnitudes and directions that cancel each other out to form a closed loop with no resultant vector.


How can four non coplanar vectors give a resultant zero?

Easy, the fourth vector (D) be opposite the sum of the other three non-coplanar vectors (A , B, C). 0=A + B + C + D where D = -(A + B + C).


The sum of two or more vectors is called a what vector?

The sum of two or more vectors is called the resultant vector. It represents the combination of all individual vectors acting together.


When do you get a magnitude of 0 in vector?

The magnitude of a vector is 0 if the magnitude is given to be 0.The magnitude of the resultant of several vectors in n-dimensional space is 0 if and only if the components of the vectors sum to 0 in each of a sewt of n orthogonal directions.


What is the purpose of vector resolution in adding vectors?

Vector addition does not follow the familiar rules of addition as applied to addition of numbers. However, if vectors are resolved into their components, the rules of addition do apply for these components. There is a further advantage when vectors are resolved along orthogonal (mutually perpendicular) directions. A vector has no effect in a direction perpendicular to its own direction.


What is the sum of two vectors A.addition vector B.distance vector C.resultant vector D.displacement vector?

The sum of two vectors is called the resultant vector. It is the vector obtained when adding two or more vectors together. The displacement vector is a specific type of vector that represents the change in position of an object.
