A class 9th physics dilemma that we’re still not able to solve, Welcome to the world of Vectors! Haha! It’s all about vectors and scalars in this chapter of class 12th, Vector Algebra. So basically what is a vector? And how it is different for a scalar.

A vector has both direction and magnitude but scalar has only magnitude.

Magnitude of a vector a is denoted by |a| or a. It is a non-negative scalar.

Examples for vectors can be force and velocity.

So, let’s see what is inside this chapter?

  • Introduction
  • Some basic concepts
  • Types of Vectors
  • Addition of Vectors
  • Multiplication of a Vector by a Scalar
  • Product of Two vectors
  • Projection
  • Section Formula
  • Dot and Cross Product

Vectors lie under moderate topics, as the beginning of the chapter is conceptual and in the end there are questions just related to it. It is still advised to remain focused in the entire chapter and know all the tricks if you’re stuck somewhere. Ahead in this article, we’ll be recommending you the places you can study Vector Algebra from.

Tips and Tricks

  1. Develop a Holistic View
  2. Imagine the concept and relate it to real life examples
  3. Understand the concept
  4. PRACTICE supremacy>>>
  5. PYQs (Previous year questions), even if you’re preparing yourself for Boards, try going for Mains questions, it will provide you a wide conceptual clarity.
  6. If you come across any doubts, then we’re here for you at DoubtConnect!

Where can I access the notes?

There are n number of notes available on the internet, Boards, Mains or Advance you name in any. So we’re gonna recommend you according to your needs.

*Before this, you should be done with your NCERT for basics.*

  1. Boards — Apni Kaksha | Physics Wallah
  2. Mains — Unacademy JEE | Physics Wallah
  3. Advance — GB sir Sheets | Any good Coaching material

Best Place to study Vectors from?
So Basically, there’s tons of content available around you, maybe your school, coaching classes, YouTube videos or some course of Vectors. Well, see we don’t need to become a research scholar of Vectors right now, right? We just need a good level of concept, let’s say just Mains or max to max, if someone is planning to appear for Advance.
