    1) Vector multiplication can result in either a scalar or vector, depending on whether it is a scalar (dot) product or vector (cross) product. 2) The dot product of two vectors A and B is a scalar quantity equal to the product of their magnitudes and the cosine of the angle between them. 3) The cross product of two vectors A and B is a vector perpendicular to both and whose magnitude is the parallelogram formed from A and B.

    Vector Multiplication

    Engr. Marcelo V. Rivera


    Vector Multiplication
    When two vectors A and B are multiplied, the result is either a
    scalar or a vector depending on how they are multiplied. Thus
    there are two types of vector multiplication:
    1. Scalar (or dot) product: A • B
    2. Vector (or cross) product: A X B
    Multiplication of three vectors A, B, and C can result in either:
    3. Scalar triple product: A • (B X C) or
    4. Vector triple product: A X (B X C)
    Dot or Scalar Product
    The dot or scalar product of two vectors A and B, denoted by AB (read A
    dot B). The product results in a scalar quantity.
    Defined as the product of the magnitudes of A and B and the cosine of the
    angle between them.

    Where: – is the smaller angle between and ;


    If and , then

    If are orthogonal,
    If are codirectional,

    The following laws are valid:
    1) Commutative Law
    2) Distributive Law
    3) ,

    Dividing a vector by a scalar value is just multiplying it with the


    reciprocal of the scalar
