Vectors 10 PDF

This document is a lecture on vector products and cross products. It begins by stating the goal of discussing vector products and cross products. It then provides the right hand thumb rule for determining the direction of the cross product A x B. Several examples of finding the cross product of vectors are worked out. Special cases for the cross product when the angle between the vectors is 0, 180, or 90 degrees are discussed. Properties of the cross product like it being non-commutative and the cross product of a vector with itself being zero are covered. Other topics discussed include the cross product of orthogonal unit vectors, finding the cross product using the determinant method, examples of calculating torque using the cross product, and calculating the area of triangles and par
