An affine transformation is a linear transformation between vector spaces, followed by a translation.
Zero vector or null vector is a vector which has zero magnitude and an arbitrary direction. It is represented by . If a vector is multiplied by zero, the result is a zero vector. It is important to note that we cannot take the above result to be a number, the result has to be a vector and here lies the importance of the zero or null vector. The physical meaning of can be understood from the following examples. The position vector of the origin of the coordinate axes is a zero vector. The displacement of a stationary particle from time t to time tl is zero. The displacement of a ball thrown up and received back by the thrower is a zero vector. The velocity vector of a stationary body is a zero vector. The acceleration vector of a body in uniform motion is a zero vector. When a zero vector is added to another vector , the result is the vector only. Similarly, when a zero vector is subtracted from a vector , the result is the vector . When a zero vector is multiplied by a non-zero scalar, the result is a zero vector.
It is an integral part of the vector and so is specified by the vector.
The components of a vector are magnitude and direction.
Vector spaces can be formed of vector subspaces.

Orthonormality is important in linear algebra because it simplifies calculations and makes it easier to work with vectors. In the context of vector spaces, orthonormal vectors form a basis that allows any vector in the space to be expressed as a linear combination of these vectors. This property is fundamental in many mathematical applications, such as solving systems of equations and understanding transformations in space.

The area vector in vector calculus represents the direction and magnitude of a surface area. It is important in applications such as calculating flux, which measures the flow of a vector field through a surface. The area vector helps determine the orientation of the surface and is crucial for understanding the behavior of vector fields in three-dimensional space.
The zero vector, denoted as 0, is a vector with all components equal to zero. It serves as the additive identity element in vector spaces, meaning that adding it to any vector does not change the vector's value.
