This study resource from Khan Academy provides practice questions for the MCAT. "Vectors and scalar" questions are provided on this resource.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Represent scalar multiplication graphically by scaling vectors and possibly reversing their direction; perform scalar multiplication component-wise.

Through illustrated examples and interactive practice problems, students examine the difference between speed and velocity.

In Spanish. Interactive activities to introduce the concept of a vector and its different operations.

Describes how a scalar can be multiplied to a vector and shows this using diagrams. Site also contains related links, graphs, and pictures.

This activity checks that you are able to add and subtract vectors, calculate the dot and cross product of vectors, and multiply or divide vectors by scalars.

Example and some exercises on how to find the magnitude of a scalar multiple.

Addresses four possible cases of multiplying three vectors together and explains whether it is possible or not.

Kids learn about glossary and terms in the science of physics and motion. Definitions for words such as momentum, force, work, energy, gravity, scalar, vector, power, and more.

This animated tutorial illustrates distance and displacement to define speed and velocity.

Students take a journey through our physical world, beginning with the ways in which people quantify and model mathematically the existence and interaction of physical objects.

Using only two of our fundamental units, time and displacement students will build a framework to predict the motion of objects, starting with one dimensional motion.

A collection of video lectures from a physics for science and engineering course taught at the University of Missouri-Kansas City. The course discusses the concepts of mechanics, wave motion, sound, heat and thermodynamics in thirty-five...

In this unit you will be manipulate vectors in graphical form and reinforce your understanding of vectors with these interactive activities.

A video tutorial and slide show lesson explains the similarities and differences between distance and displacement. [3:11]

This lesson from the Glenbrook South High School gives a nice review and detailed explanation of velocity, speed, distance, displacement, and acceleration. A good introduction to the "language of Kinematics."

A slide show with three accompanying video lesson segments illustrating the difference between speed and velocity, and demonstrating how to calculate average speed and velocity. [6:31]

This site defines a plane in terms of geometric surfaces. Content includes formulas for a plane using the normal vector, how to find the x, y, and z intercepts of a plane, distance from the origin, point plane distance formula, dihedral...

Definition and notation of the magnitude of a vector. Includes links to related sites.

This lesson should provided the learner with example problems on finding the distance and displacement of an object. It is 1 of 2 in the series titled "Practice Calculating Distance & Displacement."

Come to this site to discover the formula for finding the value of a dot product. The site offers two ways to calculate the dot product, one using only the elements of the vectors, the other using the length of each vector and the angle...

Simulation demonstrating how a point charge, a dipole, or a quadrupole shows field vectors or voltage. Change the charge and see the electric field direction and magnitude, and then record the detector values using a built-in data...

This page provides practice questions on each of the conceptual content sections in AP Physics: Chapter 2: Kinematics.

By the end of this section, you will be able to understand the four basic forces that underlie the processes in nature: gravitational, electromagnetic, weak nuclear, strong nuclear forces.
