Scalars and Vectors

In this chapter, Scalars and Vectors, you will learn the difference between scalar and vector quantities in physics. In addition, you will learn how to identify the magnitude and direction of a vector. Contents Introduction There are many physical quantities […]

Vectors

Vectors (or Vector Quantities) are the combination of two scalars. (Two units, each only with a magnitude only.) Direction and Distance are two common scalars, that combine to form Direction, a vector. In order to describe any type of motion […]

University Physics

General Physics (often referred to as University Physics, and broken into Physics I and II) is the foundation of what I like to call “General Physics” — the first stage of understanding what physics truly is at the highest level. […]
