Key Stage 4
Meaning
A vector is a quantity with both magnitude and direction.
About Vectors
Vector quantities include:
- Forces - A push or a pull which has a magnitude (size) and a direction.
- Displacement - The distance and direction from one point in space to another.
- Velocity - The speed and direction that an object is moving.
- Acceleration - The rate of change of velocity and the direction of this change.
