Antiparallel Vectors in opposite directions
Collinear vectors Vectors on the same line
Perpendicular vectors Vectors that make a right angle
Skewed vectors Vectors less than 90 degrees and are neither collinear or perpendicular to each other
Vector diagram Simple picture that shows only vectors and angles
Resultant Result of all concurrent vectors
Vector composition (vector addiction) Process of finding the resultant of 2 or more vectors, you either add or subtract
What do the signs of positive and negative tell you about the vector? what direction it’s going
How are vectors represented? What tells you the magnitude? What tells you the direction? the length of the line tells you the magnitude, and the head tells you the direction
How is the vector composition? the process of finding the resultant of 2 or more vectors with either addition or subtraction

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
