The tutorial starts with an introduction to Vector Product of Two Vectors and is then followed with a list of the separate lessons, the tutorial is designed to be read in order but you can skip to a specific lesson or return to recover a specific physics lesson as required to build your physics knowledge of Vector Product of Two Vectors. you can access all the lessons from this tutorial below.
In this Physics tutorial, you will learn:
In our previous Physics Tutorial, we discussed the "Dot (scalar) product" of two vectors. It was explained that when two vectors are multiplied in scalar mode, the result is a scalar (number). This seems a bit strange to understand, since we expect the product to be a vector considering the "closure" property of multiplication (i.e. the product of a multiplication belongs to the same set or category as the two factors). However, we saw that this is possible in dot multiplication of vectors.
But, now that we have explained the meaning of dot product, it is much simpler to understand the other type of vectors multiplication, i.e. the cross (vector) product of two vectors.
