The least number of component of a vector quantity is two. These are the x-component and the y-component. 

The resultant vector, or vector as we refer to it in this item, can be calculated through the equation,
              RV = sqrt ((Vx)² + (Vy)²)

From the equation, it can be noted that if we let Vx equal to zero,
              RV = Vy

Similarly, if we let Vy be equal to zero then,
             RV = Vx

Thus, it is still possible for the vector to become nonzero even if one of its components is zero.

Has anyone done the science project: modeling waves/properties of light?
igor_vitrenko [27]
<h2>MARK BRAINLIEST</h2>

For this assignment, you will develop several models that show how light waves and mechanical waves are reflected, absorbed, or transmitted through various materials. For each model, you will write a brief description of the interaction between the wave and the material. You will also compose two <u><em>typewritten</em></u> paragraphs. The first will compare and contrast light waves interacting with different materials. The second will explain why materials with certain properties are well suited for particular functions.

<h2><u>Background Information</u></h2>

A wave is any disturbance that carries energy from one place to another. There are two different types of waves: mechanical and electromagnetic. A mechanical wave carries energy through matter. Energy is transferred through vibrating particles of matter. Examples of mechanical waves include ocean waves, sound waves, and seismic waves. Like a mechanical wave, an electromagnetic wave can also carry energy through matter. However, unlike a mechanical wave, an electromagnetic wave does not need particles of matter to carry energy. Examples of electromagnetic waves include microwaves, visible light, X-rays, and radiation from the Sun.
