Vectors
This topic covers: - Vector magnitude - Vector scaling - Unit vectors - Adding & subtracting vectors - Magnitude & direction form - Vector applications
This course contains 10 segments:
Vector basics
Learn the basics of vectors, like that a vector has both magnitude and direction.
Magnitude of vectors
Find the magnitude of a vector given in component form.
Scalar multiplication
Multiply a vector by a scalar to get a new vector.
Vector addition & subtraction
Combine two vectors by adding or subtracting them to get a new vector.
Combined vector operations
Use both scalar multiplication and vector addition or subtraction in the same problem!
Unit vectors
Learn about special vectors called unit vectors that have a magnitude of 1.
Magnitude & direction form of vectors
Think about how we can represent vectors using their magnitude and direction instead of their components.
Component form of vectors
Convert vectors from magnitude and direction form to component form.
Adding vectors in magnitude & direction form
Learn how to add two vectors together that are in magnitude and direction form. We can always use our old friend component form!
Applications of vectors
Apply what you've learned about vectors so far to solve some fun word problems.
