What is the difference between the scalar product and the cross product of two vectors? While the composition of two vectors into a single vector is unique, the decompositionof a vector into two vectors is not. Why? and What happens with the vector product when the order of the two vectors which arebeing multiplied is reversed?
One vector has magnitude 18 units and another 5.5 units. Find their scalar product if the angle between them is 25 degrees, and then if the angle between them is 82 degrees.
