Vectors and Scalars

• Vectors require a magnitude & a direction.– Example: Displacement is a vector.

• Scalars require only a magnitude. – Example: Distance is a scalar.

Add to your CN about position, distance and displacement

Vector/Scalar example: Millie and Maxine start from their Paris

apartment.

Vector/Scalar example: Millie and Maxine start from their Paris

apartment. Maxine drives 3 miles west. Millie drives 3

miles.

Vector Scalar

Displacement answers two questions: How far?

Which way?

Distance answers

one question: How far?

Does the resultant vector represent

the distance or the displacement?

Many vectors can be added together as long as they are the same physical dimension. In other words, displacement vectors can only be added to other displacement vectors.
