Day 7

Spaced Revision

Come back to Vectors after a week. Use flashcards for quick recall and try past exam questions on this chapter.

What to Focus On

  • Scalars have only magnitude.
  • Vectors have both magnitude and direction.
  • Vectors are represented as directed line segments.
  • Unit vector has magnitude 1.
  • Negative vector has opposite direction.
  • Collinear vectors are parallel to same line.
  • Triangle and parallelogram laws for vector addition.
  • Vector addition is commutative and associative.
  • Zero vector is additive identity.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Zero vector has direction because it's written as \(\vec{0}\), so it must point somewhere.

If two vectors have same magnitude, they are equal.

Vector addition follows the same path as scalar addition: just add components without considering direction sequence.

Memory Tips

Scalar vs Vector: Scalars have magnitude only; vectors have both magnitude and direction.

Zero Vector: Magnitude is zero, direction undefined.

Unit Vector: Magnitude is 1, used to show direction.
