Vectors and Scalar Quantities:
Vectors: Scalars: Geometric Common
Representatio Examples:
Quantities with Quantities with n:
both only Vectors:
magnitude and magnitude, no Vectors shown velocity, force,
direction. direction. as arrows, displacement.
scalars as
numbers.
Scalars: mass,
time,
temperature.
Vector Addition and Subtraction:
Combining vectors to find a single resultant vector-

1. addition: Visualizing and calculating the sum of two or more vectors.


2. Vector subtraction: Determining the difference between two vectors.
3. Parallel Vectorogram law: Using the parallelogram method to add vectors.
Scalar Multiplication of Vectors:

Scale Factor-
Scaling a vector by a scalar value.

Direction Unchanged-
Scalar multiplication preserves direction.

Magnitude Changes-
Scalar modifies the length or magnitude of the vector.
Dot Product of Vectors:
Definition-
1 Scalar multiplication of vector.

Calculation-
2
Multiply corresponding vector components, then sum.

Geometric Interpretation-
3
Projection of one vector into another.

The dot product takes two vectors, multiplies their matching parts, and
adds them up to give one number showing their alignment.
Cross Product of Vectors:
Definition: 1
A vector operation that produces a
vector perpendicular to two input
vector. 2 Calculation:
Involves determinant of a 3x3 matrix
with vector components.
Properties: 3
Cross product is anti-commutative
and satisfies distributive property.
