When they have the same magnitude, but opposite directions.
When they have the same magnitude, but opposite directions.
When they have the same magnitude, but opposite directions.
When they have the same magnitude, but opposite directions.
When they have the same magnitude, but opposite directions.
They are vectors of equal magnitudes in oppositedirections. When you add them, they cancel out each other.
The condition is the two vectors are perpendicular to each other.
The smallest resultant of two vectors is the sum of two equal vectors which make an angle of 180 degrees among each other.
Yes, because the two negatives cancel each other out.
Yes. This is the basis of cartesian vector notation. With cartesian coordinates, vectors in 2D are represented by two vectors, those in 3D are represented by three. Vectors are generally represented by three vectors, but even if the vector was not in an axial plane, it would be possible to represent the vector as the sum of two vectors at right angles to eachother.
no
When you have two or more vectors that cancel each other out.
They are vectors of equal magnitudes in oppositedirections. When you add them, they cancel out each other.
The condition is the two vectors are perpendicular to each other.
The smallest resultant of two vectors is the sum of two equal vectors which make an angle of 180 degrees among each other.
If they cancel, then their magnitudes must be equal.
well think about it... if they cancel each other out, are they constructive or destructive?
Let two equal magnitude vectors be 'X'.. Then, resultant=1.414X
no it makes it stronger
When two forces cancel each other out, -- their magnitudes (size) must be exactly equal -- their directions must be exactly opposite.
The direction after adding two equal and opposite vectors is the "Direction" of the two vectors. V=aDirection and Opposite V = OV = - aDirection. Adding the two gives, V + OV= (a-a)Direction = 0 Direction.
The sum and difference of two perpendicular vectors are the same in length, but are not perpendicular unless the vectors are the same size. If they are the same size they are perpendicular, other wise they are not perpendicular.
