- 1 unit and 2 units
- 2 units and 5 units
- 3 units and 6 units
- 4 units and 8 units

The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
The magnitude of the resultant of two vectors lies between the range of their sum and the difference. For vectors of magnitudes 4 units and 8 units, the possible resultant must be between:
\(\ \ |8 - 4| = 4 \text{units} \quad \text{and} \quad 8 + 4 = 12 \text{units}.\)

Top Questions on Vectors
- If \( \overrightarrow{a} + \overrightarrow{b} + \overrightarrow{c} = 0 \), \( |\overrightarrow{a}| = \sqrt{37} \), \( |\overrightarrow{b}| = 3 \), and \( |\overrightarrow{c}| = 4 \), then the angle between \( \overrightarrow{b} \) and \( \overrightarrow{c} \) is:
- If \( \vec{\alpha} = \hat{i} - 4 \hat{j} + 9 \hat{k} \) and \( \vec{\beta} = 2\hat{i} - \hat{j} + \lambda \hat{k} \) are two mutually parallel vectors, then \( \lambda \) is equal to:
- If \( \mathbf{a} \) and \( \mathbf{b} \) are position vectors of two points \( P \) and \( Q \) respectively, then find the position vector of a point \( R \) in \( QP \) produced such that \[ QR = \frac{3}{2} QP. \]
- The diagonals of a parallelogram are given by \( \mathbf{a} = 2 \hat{i} - \hat{j} + \hat{k} \) and \( \mathbf{b} = \hat{i} + 3 \hat{j} - \hat{k}\) . Find the area of the parallelogram.
Let $ \vec{a} = \hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + \hat{k} $, $ \vec{b} = 3\hat{i} - 3\hat{j} + 3\hat{k} $, $ \vec{c} = 2\hat{i} - \hat{j} + 2\hat{k} $ and $ \vec{d} $ be a vector such that $ \vec{b} \times \vec{d} = \vec{c} \times \vec{d} $ and $ \vec{a} \cdot \vec{d} = 4 $. Then $ |\vec{a} \times \vec{d}|^2 $ is equal to _______
