Subtraction of Two Vectors
Two vectors can be easily subtracted using the vector addition rules. A negative vector is considered a vector with opposite direction so it is easily solved by reversing its direction and applying Trinagle Law of Vector Addition.
Two vectors a and b are subtracted easily as shown in the image added below:
Vector Operations
Vector Operations are operations that are performed on vector quantities. Vector quantities are the quantities that have both magnitude and direction. So performing mathematical operations on them directly is not possible. So we have special operations that work only with vector quantities and hence the name, vector operations.
Thus, It is essential to know what kind of operations can be performed on the vector quantities and vector operations tells us about the same. This article deals with vector operations, such as vector addition, the cross product of two vectors, the dot product of two vectors, and others in detail. Let’s learn about all of them in detail, here in this article.
