Definition of a Vector Quantity
When someone tells you to throw a ball twice as hard and to the left, a vector was just used. When someone tells you to drive northeast for about five miles, a vector was just used. So what exactly is a vector? Any quantity that needs to be fully described by identifying its magnitude and direction is referred to as a vector quantity. By magnitude, we mean size of the quantity, such as length or strength. By direction, we mean where the vector is pointing or where it is being directed, such as left or right, north, south, east, or west, or even up or down.
How a Vector Is Represented
When a vector is drawn, it is represented by an arrow whose length represents the vector's magnitude and whose arrow head points in the direction of the vector as shown in the figure below.
If the vector represents a quantity in one dimension--x-direction (left and right) or y-direction (up and down)--then a vector will be written as a number with a plus (+) or minus (-) sign in front of it. The plus refers to pointing right or up, and the minus refers to pointing left or down. In two dimensions (x and y), a vector will be represented with a number for magnitude and an angle for direction.
Examples of Vectors and Non-Vectors
When you use your global positioning system (GPS) in your car to help you get to your destination, the GPS unit will give you two pieces of information, such as drive 300 feet and then turn left. That is an example of a vector.
During a weather report, the reporter makes use of a vector when he states that at 1:00 a.m., the wind will blow north at 12 km/h, and at 1:00 p.m. the wind is expected to blow eastward at 36 km/h. There is a magnitude (km/h) and a direction (north or east). In the picture, the direction is represented by the arrow and the magnitude is represented by the speed listed below the arrow.
