The maximum magnitude of their resultant vector is when the two vectors are parallel and in the same direction, so they lie on the same axis. In this case, the magnitude of their resultant vector is simply the sum of the two magnitudes:

$R=2.5 km+6.5 km=9.0 km$

The minimum magnitude of their resultant vector is when the two vectors are parallel but in opposite direction. In this case, the magnitude of their resultant vectors is just the difference between the two magnitudes:

$R=6.5 km-2.5 km=4.0 km$

<span>Newton and Leibniz feuded over who invented calculus. Newton had proabaly come up with the idea eariler, but Leibniz took the spotlight by publishing first. Complicating things were their respecitve home countries, England and France, which had their own rivalry at the time. Further complicating matters was that they discovered different types of calculus, and had different notations. Today, beggining calculus students use methods and notations similar to Leibniz, but Newton's methods come into use in higher level classes.</span>
