Can a vector have nonzero magnitude if a component is zero?
Yes, a vector can have zero components along a line and still have a non-zero magnitude.
Example: Consider a two dimensional vector 2i + 0j. This vector has zero components along a line lying along the Y - axis and a non- zero component along the X - axis. The magnitude of the vector is also non - zero.
Now, magnitude of 2i + 0j = [tex]\sqrt2^2+\sqrt0^2[/tex]=2
