What is collinear vector with example?
What is Collinear Vector
When drawing a vector using the triangle method of addition how do you draw in the resultant vector?
When drawing a vector using the triangle method you will draw in the resultant vector using Pythagorean theorem. This is taught in physics.
What is the difference between an initial point of a vector and a terminal point?
The difference is the length of the vector.
What is the vector equation for the x axis?
ki where i is the unit horizontal vector, and k is any number.
Find a unit vector in the direction from 3 -1 4 to 1 3 5?
find the vector<1,1>+<4,-3>
What is the definition of a radius vector?
A radius (or radial) vector is a vector which goes through the origin. That is going directly away from (or toward) the origin. A vector that is not radial is a transverse vector
What is the definition for line of action?
It is the direction of the vector representing the force.
What is the speed and direction at which something moves?
That's the definition of its velocity vector.
Is a vector a quantity that has both a magnitude and direction?
Yes, that is an acceptable definition.
Is a vector a line?
Vectors are often represented by arrows whose length is proportional to the magnitude of the vector. The arrowhead points to the direction the vector is acting. You'll have to decide if such an arrow fits your definition of a line.
How do you prove that weight is a vector quantity?
You don't need to prove much - just look at the definition of a vector. A vector includes a magnitude (in this case the force), and a direction. Since weight (or "the force of gravity") is directed to a certain direction, namely downward, you can consider it a vector.You don't need to prove much - just look at the definition of a vector.

Is their any physical quantity having both magnitude and direction still not a vector?
I don't think so - is something has a magnitude and a direction, by definition it is a vector.
Definition of Divergence of a vector field?
hedivergence of a vector fieldF= (F(x,y),G(x,y)) with continuous partial derivatives is defined by:
Why vector is staight not a curve?
Because a vector contains information about the direction. A direction, at any particular position is the tangent to the curve and this, by definition, must be straight.
Vector and scalar quantities definition?
Vector quantities have both magnitude and direction, such as velocity and force. Scalar quantities have only magnitude and no specific direction, such as speed and temperature.
Is the force of gravity is a vector?
Yes, the force of gravity is a vector quantity. It has both magnitude, which is the strength of the force, and direction, which is always pulling objects towards the center of the Earth.
How is the direction of the vectors involved in the definition of work?
A definition of work W: W = ⌠F∙dsWhere F is a force vector that is dot-multiplying (scalar product) the differentialdisplacement vector dS. The result is the work W, a scalar, done by the force thatproduced the displacement. But notice that the scalar product of both vectors willonly consider the force component that is collinear with the displacement vector.
