- 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:
\(\ \ |8 - 4| = 4 \text{units} \quad \text{and} \quad 8 + 4 = 12 \text{units}.\)
