Can we add 3 vectors of equal magnitude and get a zero vector?
True
Hmmmmm.....
Let's take 3 vectors →A,→B,→C with equal magnitude a
Now if I start by adding →A & →B and I get a resultant →R+→C. This should give me a null vector.
⇒→R+→C=0
⇒→R should be negative of →C
→R=−→C
⇒R will have the same magnitude as →C just opposite direction
⇒|→R|=a
Let me verify that mathematically if it is possible or not.
Okay,→A+→B=→R
Let's assume they have angle θ between them
We know |→A|=|→B|=a
Also|→R|=a
|→R|=√|→A|2+|→B|2+2|→A||→B|cos θ
a=√a2+a2+2a2cos θ
a2=2a2+2a2cos θ
cos θ=−12
⇒θ=120∘
tan ϕ=|→B|sin θ|→A|+|→B|cos θ=asin 120∘a+acos 120∘=a√322a+a12=√3
Now let me draw the image
Now
∵→R=−→C
⇒
Now we see that all the 3 vectors should make 120∘ with each other
