Question

distinuish between scalar product and vector product of two vectors
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Scalar product :-

The scalar product of two vectors is obtained by multiplying their magnitudes with the cosine of the angle between them. The scalar product of orthogonal vectors vanishes; the scalar product of antiparallel vectors is negative. The vector product of two vectors is a vector perpendicular to both of them.

Vector product :-

The vector product of two vectors is a vector perpendicular to both of them. Its magnitude is obtained by multiplying their magnitudes by the sine of the angle between them. The direction of the vector product can be determined by the corkscrew right-hand rule.
