A complete lesson/tutorial on vectors. Learn about vector addition, vector resolution, vector components, and resultants. Numerous examples and learning exercises are provided.

[Free Registration/Login Required] Learn about adding force vectors in two dimensions using the example of a painting hanging from two strings. Experiment with variables of weight and angles to hang a portrait in this physics simulation....

An interactive Java applet where users can rotate a vector about its tail and view the components of that vector. Magnitude of the components is updated on screen as the vector is dragged.

In this unit, students learn two basic methods for determining the magnitudes of the components of a vector directed in two dimensions. The two methods of vector resolution students will examine are the parallelogram method the...

This interactive tutorial helps students determine the components of a vector to better understand resolution of forces.

In this physics tutorial, students learn how to approach more complex vector addition situations by combining the concept of vector components and the principles of vector resolution with the use of the Pythagorean theorem.

This site, in German, offers numerous apps that illustrate common physics principles. Apps are organized into categories: mechanics, oscillations and waves, electrodynamics, optics, thermodynamics, the theory of relativity, physics of...
