Question

what do you mean by dot product of two vectors.​

Answer 1

Dot product of two vectors :-

There are two perceptions , one in Mathematics and the other in Euclidian Geometry .

In mathematics, the dot product or scalar product is an algebraic operation that takes two equal-length sequences of numbers, and returns a single number

In Euclidean geometry, the dot product of the Cartesian coordinates of two vectors is widely used

Hope this helps !!

Answer 2

Answer:

Algebraically, the dot product is the sum of the products of the corresponding entries of the two sequences of numbers. ... Geometrically, it is the product of the Euclidean magnitudes of the two vectors and the cosine of the angle between them.

Explanation:

The scalar product or dot product of any two vectors A and B, denoted as A.B (Read A dot B) is defined as , where q is the angle between the two vectors. A, B and cos θ are scalars, the dot product of A and B is a scalar quantity. ... Alternatively, it is the product of the magnitude of B and the component of A along B.
