VECTORS
Scalar : A physical quantity which has only
magnitude is called a scalar.
Vector : A physical quantity which has both magnitude and
direction is called a vector. If a vector is represented by a directed
line segment , then A and B are called the initial and terminal
points. The direction from A to B gives the direction of the vector
and the distance from A to B gives its magnitude. A vector is
generally denoted by bold face letter (example:a,b,c etc.) or the
letters with bar (example : etc.)
Null vector : A vector whose magnitude is zero is called a null vector.
The direction of a null vector is not defined specifically.
Unit vector : A vector of length one unit is called unit vector.
Like vectors and parallel vectors : vectors which have the same
direction are said to be like vectors. Two vectors having the same
direction or opposite direction are called parallel vectors.
ANGLE BETWEEN THE VECTORS
Collinear vectors : Vectors lie on same line (or) parallel
lines are called collinear vectors (or) parallel vectors.
Coplanar and non-coplanar vectors :
Two or more vectors are said to be coplanar if they lie
on the same plane or parallel planes. Vectors which do not like
on same plane or parallel planes or called non Coplanar vectors.
