1. Scalar – a variable whose value is expressed only as a magnitude or quantityHeight, pressure, speed, density, etc.
2. Vector – a variable whose value is expressed both as a magnitude and directionDisplacement, force, velocity, momentum, etc.
3. Tensor – a variable whose values are collections of vectors, such as stress on a material, the curvature of space-time (General Theory of Relativity), gyroscopic motion, etc.
Properties of Vectors
1. MagnitudeLength implies magnitude of vector
2. DirectionArrow implies direction of vector
3. Act along the line of their direction4. No fixed origin
Can be located anywhere in space

F = 40 lbs 45o
F = 40 lbs @ 45o

Hat signifies vector quantity
Bold type and an underline F also identify vectors
1. We can multiply any vector by a whole number.2. Original direction is maintained, new magnitude.

1. We can add two or more vectors together. 2. 2 methods:
1. Graphical Addition/subtraction – redraw vectors head-to-tail, then draw the resultant vector. (head-to-tail order does not matter)

1. It is often useful to break a vector into horizontal and vertical components (rectangular components).
2. Consider the Force vector below. 3. Plot this vector on x-y axis.4. Project the vector onto x and y axes.

Fx
Fy
This means:
vector F = vector Fx + vector Fy
Remember the addition of vectors:

Fx = Fx i
Vector Fx = Magnitude Fx times vector i
Vector Fy = Magnitude Fy times vector j
Fy = Fy j
F = Fx i + Fy j
i denotes vector in x direction
j denotes vector in y direction

Each grid space represents 1 lb force.
What is Fx?
Fx = (4 lbs)i
What is Fy?
Fy = (3 lbs)j
What is F?
F = (4 lbs)i + (3 lbs)j

1. Vectors can be completely represented in two ways:1. Graphically2. Sum of vectors in any three independent directions
2. Vectors can also be added/subtracted in either of those ways:1.
2. F1 = ai + bj + ck; F2 = si + tj + uk
F1 + F2 = (a + s)i + (b + t)j + (c + u)k
Vectors
A third way to add, subtract, and otherwise decompose vectors:
Use the law of sines or the law of cosines to find R.

Brief note about subtraction1. If F = ai + bj + ck, then – F = – ai – bj – ck
2. Also, if
F =
Then,

Vectors
Resultant Forces
Resultant forces are the overall combination of all forces acting on a body.
1) find sum of forces in x-direction
2) find sum of forces in y-direction
3) find sum of forces in z-direction
3) Write as single vector in rectangular components
R = SFxi + SFyj + SFzk
Resultant Forces – Example 1A satellite flies without friction in space. Earth’s gravity pulls downward on the satellite with a force of 200 N. Stray space junk hits the satellite with a force of 1000 N at 60o to the horizontal. What is the resultant force acting on the satellite?
1. Sketch and label free-body diagram (all external and reactive forces acting on the body)
2. Decompose all vectors into rectangular components (x, y, z)
3. Add vectors
Example 2
A stop light is held by two cables as shown. If the stop light weighs 120 N, what are the tensions in the two cables?
