Unit 1 Segment D: Vectors and Scalars A marching band helps us explore the difference between vector and scalar quantities. We also dive into how to use the tip-to-tail method to resolve one and ...

A vector can be represented by a line segment labelled with an arrow. A vector between two points A and B is described as: \(\overrightarrow{AB}\), \(\mathbf{a}\) or \(\underline{a}\). The vector can ...

Scientists often make measurements. The physical quantities they measure fall into two categories: scalars and vectors. Scalar and vector quantities are treated differently in calculations. Motion - ...

Any vector can be expressed as a sum of a number of other vectors. The vectors which are summed are called the components of the original vector. When you want to add and subtract two dimensional ...
