To solve the question, we need to analyze the relationship between a vector \(\vec{X}\) and its increment \(\Delta \vec{X}\). We want to determine if the increment in the magnitude of \(\vec{X}\) can be greater than or equal to the modulus of the increment of the vector \(\Delta \vec{X}\). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Vectors**: - Let \(\vec{X}\) be a vector with a certain magnitude \( |\vec{X}| \). - An increment \(\Delta \vec{X}\) is added to \(\vec{X}\), resulting in a new vector \(\vec{Y} = \vec{X} + \Delta \vec{X}\). ...
