What to Focus On
- A vector has both magnitude and direction.
- A scalar has only magnitude.
- Zero vector is denoted by 0⃗.
- Position vector gives the location of a point from the origin.
- |OP⃗| = √(x² + y² + z²).
- r⃗ = xî + yĵ + zk̂.
- Triangle law: AC⃗ = AB⃗ + BC⃗.
- Sides of a triangle taken in order give zero resultant.
- Parallelogram law uses the diagonal as resultant.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
A quantity with a numerical value is always a vector.
The zero vector has a fixed direction like other vectors.
Direction ratios and direction cosines are the same thing.
Memory Tips
Vector means magnitude with direction
Scalar quantities need only magnitude
Zero vector
