Scalars, Vectors, and Vector Operations

from Professor Dave Explains · host Professor Dave Explains

What are all these funny little arrows? They're vectors! And we will use them to represent every single force we discuss in physics, so we need to know how to draw them, add them, subtract them, split them up into X and Y components, the whole nine yards. We also need to know the difference between vectors and scalars. So let's get this stuff taken care of before we dive into the physics!Watch the whole Classical Physics playlist: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics1Modern Physics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics2Mathematics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveMathsGeneral Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveGenChemOrganic Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveOrgChemBiochemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBiochemBiology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBioEMAIL► [email protected]► http://patreon.com/ProfessorDaveExplainsCheck out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!Amazon: https://amzn.to/2HtNpVHBookshop: https://bit.ly/39cKADMBarnes and Noble: https://bit.ly/3pUjmrn Book Depository: http://bit.ly/3aOVDlT Learn more about your ad choices.
