A third vector operation The Dot Product
The dot product of v = and w = is defined as
Notice that unlike vector addition and scalar multiplication, the dot product yields a scalar
and not a vector.

Orthogonal Vectors
Vectors a & b are orthogonal if and only if a � b = 0.
Example 1: Find the dot product of u and v. Then determine if u and v are orthogonal.

VECTOR PROJECTIONS
We have resolved vectors into two perpendicular components, sometimes it is useful for one component to be parallel to another vector.

VECTOR PROJECTIONS Projection of u onto v
Let u and v be nonzero vectors, and let w1 and w2 be vector components of u such that w1 is
parallel to v as shown. Then vector w1 is called the vector projection of u onto v, denoted

EXAMPLE 4: Find the projection of
Then write u as the sum of two orthogonal vectors, one of which is the projection of u
onto v.

The projection of u onto v is a vector parallel to v, this vector will not necessarily have the
same direction as v.

Projection with Direction Opposite v
Find the projection of u onto v, when
Then write u as the sum of two orthogonal vectors, one of which is the projection of u onto v.

Step 1: Find the projection vector.
![Page 16: DOT PRODUCT AND VECTOR PROJECTION - Mrs. Anita Koenanitakoen.weebly.com/uploads/1/3/3/8/13389812/lp5_dot...A third vector operation The Dot Product The dot product of v = and w = is](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042804/5f59c2d721a1af1d56184fa7/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Step 2: Find w2.
Since u = w1 + w2, then w2 = u – w1

If the vector u represents a force, then projvu represents the effect of that force acting in the
direction of v. Example 5: A 3000 pound car sits on a hill inclined at
30°. Ignoring the force of friction, what force is required to keep the car from rolling down the hill?
The weight of the car is the force exerted due to gravity
To find the force, – w1 required to keep the car from rolling down the hill, project F onto a unit vector in the direction of
the side of the hill.

Step 1: Find a unit vector in the direction of the hill.
Step 2: Find w1 = proj v F.
The force required is –w1 = -(-1500v) = 1500 pounds

CALCULATING WORK
In elementary physics, the formula for calculating work is
W = (amount of force in the direction of AB)(distance)
W = F�AB
F = force vector AB = directed distance

Example 6: A person pushes a car with a constant force of 120 newtons at a constant angle of 45°. Find the work done in joules moving the car 10 meters.
