Suppose you add two vectors A and B. What relative direction between them produces the resultant with the greatest magnitude? What relative direction between them produces the resultant with the smallest magnitude? A and B anti-parallel; A and B parallel A and B parallel; A and B anti-parallel A and B perpendicular; A and B parallel A and B parallel; A and B perpendicular

If vector B is added to vector A, which two of the following choices must be true in order for the resultant vector to be equal to zero? A and B are equal and opposite directions A and B are perpendicular A and B are equal and in the same direction A and B are not equal and in the same direction None of these
