Application of vectors to plane geometry. Vector algebra deals with addition / subtraction / product of vector quantities. Application of vectors to many geometrical problems cuts short the procedure. Hence geometrical significance of vectors should be well understood. VECTORS AND SCALARS The physical quantities (we deal with) are generally of two types: Scalar Quantity: A quantity which has magnitude but no sense of direction is called Scalar quantity (or scalar), e.g., mass, volume, density, speed etc. Vector Quantity: A quantity which has magnitude as well as a sense of direction in space is called a vector quantity, e.g., velocity, force, displacement etc. NOTATION AND REPRESENTATION OF VECTORS CHAPTER INCLUDES : Vectors and Scalars Representation of vectors Magnitude of a vectors Types of vectors Angle between vectors Vectors are represented by a , b , c and their magnitude (modulus) is represented Addition of vectors by a, b, c, or | a |, |b |,|c | , The vectors are represented by directed line segments. P O For example, line segment OP represents a vector with magnitude OP (length of line segment), arrow denotes its direction. O is initial point and P is terminal point. SOME SPECIAL VECTORS Null vectors: A vector with zero magnitude and indeterminate direction, denoted by O . Unit vector: A vector with unit magnitude (one unit), denoted by aˆ where | aˆ | = 1 unit. Equal vectors: Two vectors a and b are said to be equal if they have same sense of direction and | a |= |b | , denoted by a = b . Subtraction of vectors Section formulae Resolution of vectors Linearly dependent & independent system of vectors Multiplication of a vectors by a scalar Scalar (dot) product of two vectors Vectors (cross) product of two vectors Scalar triple product Vector triple product Application of vectors to geometry Solved examples TEACHING CARE Online Live Classes https://www.teachingcare.com/ +91-9811000616 Like and unlike vectors: Vectors having same sense of directions are called Like vector and opposite sense of directions are called Unlike vector. Negative of a vector: Negative of a vector a , denoted by – a , is a vector whose magnitude is | a | and direction is opposite of a . Collinear vectors: Vectors having same line of action. Parallel vectors: Vectors having same line of action or are parallel to a fixed straight lines. Coplanar vectors: The vectors which lie in the same plane. At least three coplanar unequal vectors are required to make the sum zero and at least four if non-coplanar. Free vectors: A vector not restricted to pass through a fixed point. Localized vectors: A vector restricted to pass through a fixed point. Co-initial vectors: Vectors having same initial point. Position vectors: Let O be fixed point in space, then vector OP (P is any point in space) is called position vector of P w.r.t. O. If A and B are any two point in space then AB = p.v. of B – p.v. of A = OB − OA . ANGLE BETWEEN TWO VECTORS The angle between two vectors a and b represented by OA and OB is ∠AOB = θ B 0 ≤ θ ≤ π If θ = π , then vectors are called orthogonal or perpendicular vectors b 2 θ if θ = 0 or π then vectors are called parallel or coincident vectors. θ a A ADDITION OF VECTORS Let a and b be two vectors. Draw OA representing vector a . Taking terminal point of a as initial point of vector b , draw AB B representing vector b . Then vector OB is called sum of vectors b a and b , denoted by a + b (triangle law of addition) O A Triangle Law of Addition a Three vectors are in equilibrium if represented by, three sides of a closed triangle taken in order, (in magnitude and direction). Converse of triangle law is also true. Law of polygons : If several vectors, when added, form a closed polygon, their resultant is zero. Parallelogram law of addition – If two vectors are represented in magnitude and direction, by the two adjacent sides of a parallelogram, their resultant is represented in magnitude and direction, by the co-initial diagonal of that parallelogram. R = and tanφ = Q sinθ P + Q cos θ If θ = 0º then R = P + Q (maximum) θ = π then R = P ~ Q (minimum) If θ = π 2 then R = and tanφ = Q P Properties of Vector Addition P Vector addition is commutative. a + b = b + a Vector addition is associative (a + b ) + c = a + (b + c ) O or null vector is additive identity. A + O = A = O + A Additive inverse of A is (−A ) , Since A + (−A ) = O At what angle (θ) shall two vectors P & Q each. What shall be the range of n? (| P |=| Q |) act, so as to have a resultant n times in magnitude of Solution : Let | P |=| Q |= F then magnitude of resultant = nF.

The vector resolution can be orthogonal or non-orthogonal. Orthogonal resolution means the components of the vector are mutually perpendicular otherwise non-orthogonal. Orthogonal components of vector R are as shown. P = Rcosθ Q = Rsinθ R = P + Q P Non-orthogonal components of R are as shown P = R sinβ sin(α + β) R sinα Q = sin(α + β) LINEAR COMBINATION OF VECTORS If a and b are two non-collinear vectors, then any vector r in the plane of a and b is uniquely expressed as r = xa + yb , where x and y are scalars. (Similar linear combination (unique) exists for three non-coplanar vectors, r = xa + yb + zc ).
