∙ 12y agoNo, the magnitude of a vector is the length of the vector, while the angle formed by a vector is the direction in which the vector points relative to a reference axis. These are separate properties of a vector that describe different aspects of its characteristics.
No, a vector's magnitude and direction can remain the same if it is rotated through an angle, as long as the rotation occurs around an axis that is parallel to the vector. The vector is considered unchanged in this scenario.
No, a vector is not necessarily changed just by being rotated through an angle. The magnitude and direction of the vector may remain the same even after rotation.
Yes. You can consider a vector of being made up of a magnitude (size) and a direction. If any of the two changes, it is no longer the same vector. Alternately, you can also consider a vector (in two dimensions, for simplicity) as being made up of an x-component and a y-component. It is not possible to change the angle without changing at least one of the two components.
Yes, if a vector doubles in magnitude with the same direction, then its components will also double in value. This is because the components of a vector are directly proportional to its magnitude in the same direction.
No, the resultant of two equal vectors will have a magnitude that is not equal to the magnitude of the original vectors. When two vectors are added together, the resulting vector will have a magnitude that depends on the angle between the two vectors.

The magnitude is the same, the direction vector is not.

Any other vector with with the same magnitude and the same direction.
Yes, if a vector doubles in magnitude with the same direction, then its components will also double in value. This is because the components of a vector are directly proportional to its magnitude in the same direction.
It is a vector with the same magnitude (size) but acting in the opposite direction.
yes
No, the resultant of two equal vectors will have a magnitude that is not equal to the magnitude of the original vectors. When two vectors are added together, the resulting vector will have a magnitude that depends on the angle between the two vectors.
The magnitude of the vector sum will only equal the magnitude of algebraic sum, when the vectors are pointing in the same direction.
Divide the vector by it's length (magnitude).
