Is it possible to multiply a vector quantity to a scalar quantity?

Answer 1

The product of scalar and vector quantity is scalar.

Answer 2

Well, a "scalar product" would certainly be a scalar.

I think you probably meant to ask about cross products (in vector spaces where they exist, e.g. 3-space) or about inner products (e.g. 2-space dot products).

The cross product of two vectors is a vector.
Inner products are scalars.

Answer 3

(vector) times (vector) produces either a vector or a scalar, depending on

whether the vector product or scalar product is performed.

(vector) times (scalar) produces a new vector.

Answer 4

There are (at least) two ways of defining a vector product. One results in a scalar but the other - the cross product or the Gibbs product - is a vector.

Answer 5

A vector and scalar quantity dont have dot or cross product.But they can simply multiplied.for example f=ma and p=mv.

Answer 6

No. A scalar quantity is always different from a vector quantity . A scalar is fundamentally different from a vector.

Answer 7

No.

The cross product of two vectors is a vector.

The dot product of two vectors is a scalar.

Answer 8

(1,1) + (-1,4) = (0,5)

Answer 9

No. The sum of vectors is a vector.

Answer 10

No.
