    This topic covers: - Vector magnitude - Vector scaling - Unit vectors - Adding & subtracting vectors - Magnitude & direction form - Vector applications

  2. Vector examples (video) | Vectors | Khan Academy

    In this video I want to kind of go back to basics and just give you a lot of examples. And give you a more tangible sense for what vectors are and how we operate with them.

  3. Vectors | Precalculus | Math | Khan Academy

    Learn what vectors are and how they can be used to model real-world situations. Perform various operations with vectors like adding, subtracting, scaling, and conversion between rectangular to polar …

  4. Vectors and spaces | Linear algebra | Math | Khan Academy

    Vectors are used to represent many things around us: from forces like gravity, acceleration, friction, stress and strain on structures, to computer graphics used in almost all modern-day movies and …

  5. Vectors: FAQ (article) | Vectors | Khan Academy

    What is a vector? A vector is a mathematical object that has both a magnitude (length) and a direction. Vectors can be used to represent physical quantities such as velocity, force, and acceleration.

  6. Vectors and notation (article) - Khan Academy

    Learn about what vectors are, how we can visualize them, and how we can combine them.

  7. Scalars and vectors (article) | Kinematics | Khan Academy

    Distinguish between scalar and vector quantities. Learn how to represent and combine vectors in one dimension.

  8. Vector intro for linear algebra (video) | Khan Academy

    A vector has both magnitude and direction. We use vectors to, for example, describe the velocity of moving objects. In this video, you'll learn how to write and draw vectors.

  9. Adding & subtracting vectors (video) | Khan Academy

    Now what I just showed you, this is the convention for adding and subtracting two dimensional vectors like vectors A and B. Let's think a little bit about how we can visually depict what is going on.

  10. Cross product introduction (formula) | Vectors (video) | Khan Academy

    The cross product of two parallel vectors is 0, and the magnitude of the cross product of two vectors is at its maximum when the two vectors are perpendicular. There are lots of other examples in physics, …
