Vectors

Friends, today lets work on Vectors, it is good concept in mathematics.

What is vector?

A quantity having length and direction is called a vector. A non negative real number. Normal vector has perpendicular vector on surface. Another vector is tangent vector. It is a curve at particular point or surface at any point. These points can be specified.

Free vector is that vector whose initial point is not fixed. It is also known as a non-localised vector.

For example, velocity vector of particle moving along a straight line is a free vector

Some of the example of vector are Velocity, acceleration, weight and force.

Lets work on more vectors in my next post. Until then post your comments on the current post.
