| V(x)= | Vcos@ |
| V(y)= | Vsin@ |
| Hypotenuse of right triangle has to be ______ than _______ but _______ than sum of leg. | has to be BIGGER than EITHER LEGS but LESS than sum of leg |
| List Vector quantity | displacement, velocity, acceleration, force, momentum, electric field, megnetic field, and weight |
| Weight is | force of gravity |
| Weight is scalar or vector? | vector |
| Mass is scalar or vector? | scalar |
| Vector multiplication has two forms? | scalar and vector |
| Scalar multiplication is | DOT product (A dot B = AB cos@) |
| In dot product, smaller angle _______ their dot product | greater |
| Vector multiplication is | (A X B = AB sin@ n) n is unit vector perpendicular between 2 vectors,2 vectors multiplies to produce 3rd vector perpendicular to both original vector |
