(N/A) The two properties of vector addition are:
$1$. Commutative Law: Vector addition is commutative,which means the order of addition does not change the resultant vector. Mathematically,$\vec{A} + \vec{B} = \vec{B} + \vec{A}$.
$2$. Associative Law: Vector addition is associative,which means when adding three vectors,the grouping of the vectors does not change the resultant. Mathematically,$(\vec{A} + \vec{B}) + \vec{C} = \vec{A} + (\vec{B} + \vec{C})$.
