Lesson: Scalar Multiplication and Unit Vectors Mathematics

Start Practising

In this lesson, we will learn how to multiply a vector by a scalar and how to find a unit vector in the direction of any given vector by dividing the vector by a scalar.

Lesson Plan

Students will be able to

perform a scalar multiplication on a vector in 2D or 3D (graphically and numerically),
find the unit vector associated with a position vector in 2D or 3D,
find the unit vector associated with any general vector in 2D or 3D.
