3 Vectors in Physics3-1 Scalars versus Vectors
Scalar: a number with unit
volume, time, temperature, distance …
Vector: a mathematical quantity with both direction and magnitude
velocity, acceleration, displacement …

(1) Vector: draw diagram or sketch
Magnitude: length of line
Direction: arrow
(2) Vector: write
Boldface, r
Draw arrow over the vector’s symbol
Magnitude: r=|r|=| |
