Provides an explanation, examples, and a video lesson all related to vectors. [1:16]

This illustrated tutorial focuses on several examples of vector and scalar quantities including distance, displacement, speed, velocity, and acceleration.

Learn how to use vector diagrams to describe the velocity of a moving object during its motion.

In this physics tutorial on vectors, the use of kinematic equations to solve non-horizontally launched projectiles is demonstrated.

Use trigonometry to practice adding, decomposing, and finding vector angles from physics word problems.

Contains an index of pages that discuss how to work with vector fields. Includes information on basic vector operations, multiplying vectors, lines and planes, and extra bits of information.

A Java applet on vector addition. Users drag two or more vectors to be added together. Clicking a button shows the resultant of the vectors.

Professor Shankar introduces and discusses vectors in multiple dimensions. The discussion includes topics such as null vectors, minus vectors, unit and velocity vectors. The lecture can be accessed as video, audio or as a transcript.

This site from NASA provides an excellent tutorial on vectors and their use in physics to describe the motion of objects. Vector addition and resolution are illustrated.

This page defines the unit vector, a vector of length one in the same direction as a given vector. (The term "norm" can be interpreted in many cases as "length.") Provides formulas, references, and links.

Defines vector sum and expresses the notation using algebra. Includes links to sites with related information.

Students understand the concepts of vectors and their resultant. They get acquainted with the parallelogram law of vector addition.

In this activity, students will use vector analysis to understand the concept of dead reckoning. Students will use vectors to plot their course based on a time and speed. They will then correct the positions with vectors representing...

The resource examines vectors and their properties. Topics investigated are vector, vector arithmetic, dot product, and cross product. Class notes, definitions, and examples with detailed solutions are included. The notes are available...

Test yourself on finding the length of a vector and the angle the vector makes with respect to the XZ plane.

In this activity, students use the CellSheet Application to graph vectors. They also learn to find the sum of two vectors.

Young scholars work in groups to find a "treasure" using directions from a map that has been torn into sections, and the directions are written as vectors.

This game is intended to help students break a vector into components. They will be given a vector and then have click to see if they hit the right spot. Students need a score of 5 to successfully complete this activity.

This game is intended to help students get the idea of vector addition. Students will be given a randomly generated series of three vectors. They must follow the vectors to the end and then click to see if they hit the right spot.

A program that will randomly move an object from one location to another in three-dimensional space. You must determine the three components of the velocity vector that is created by this movement and also the speed of the object during...
