What is vector dot product?
The dot-product of two vectors is the product of their magnitudes multiplied by the cosine of the angle between them. The dot-product is a scalar quantity.
Is triple dot product defined?
If by "triple dot product" you mean u·v·w, then no, because that would imply the existence of a dot product between a vector and a scalar.
Why is the dot product scalar?
Because only the magnitudes are multiplied.
What is the difference between finding the dot product and using scalar multiplication?
They give us different results. The dot product produces a number, while the scalar multiplication produces a vector.
Why work done is a dot product?
As we know work done is a scalar. Also the work done is referred to as the product of force and displacement. so, we consider the dot product of force and displacement which would result in a scalar.
Is there any direction associated with the dot product of two vectors?
No. The dot product is also called the scalar product and therein lies the clue.
Why dot product of two vectors is scalar?
That's the way it is defined.
What is the product of two vector quantities?
It depends on the type of product used. A dot or scalar product of two vectors will result in a scalar. A cross or vector product of two vectors will result in a vector.
What is the use of dot product in Physics and explain?
Dot Products in Physics denote scalar results fmo vector products, e.g Work = F.D = FDCos(FD) a scalar result from the dot product of two vectors, F Force and D Displacement.
Is it possible to multiply a vector quantity to a scalar quantity?
The product of scalar and vector quantity is scalar.
How product 2 vectorsscalar?
Your question makes no sense I'm afraid. However the vector product that produces a scalar is the 'dot product'
in what components dot and cross product resolve?
A dot product is a scalar product so it is a single number with only one component. A cross product or vector product is a vector which has three components like the original vectors.
