Question

If the component of vector $\overrightarrow{A}$ along the direction of vector$\overrightarrow{B}$is zero, what can you conclude about the two vectors?

Short answer

The two vectors are so perpendicular to one another.

Step-by-step solution

Definition of Vector.

In physics, a vector is a quantity with both magnitude and direction.

It's usually represented by an arrow with the same direction as the amount and a length proportionate to the magnitude of the quantity.

Concluding the two vectors.

Along the direction of the vector $\overrightarrow{A}$, the component of the vector $\overrightarrow{B}$is zero. When one of the vectors is zero in the direction of the other, they are said to be perpendicular. The two vectors are so perpendicular to one another.

The representation of the vectors is depicted in the diagram below
