  1. Interact with this app for a minute or two. The vector, its initial point, and its terminal point are all moveable. (.ggb)
     
  2. Suppose these vectors represent two different wind forces blowing on this crumpled up piece of paper. Ignoring air resistance, draw the path you think this crumpled up piece of paper will tak (.ggb)
     
  3. What if the wind forces occurred at separate times (i.e. one after the other)? Would the piece of paper end up in the same spot? Explain. (.ggb)
     
  4. Applet 4 (.ggb)
     
  5. Unit Vector (.ggb)
     
  6. What Vector Has the Same Direction, but a Magnitude of 1? (.ggb)
     
  7. Construct the above vector in the applet below . Make sure it is of magnitude 4 and indicates a horizontal direction to the right. Then construct another vector in the vertically upward direc (.ggb)
     
  8. Change the positions of A,B, C and D. Drag the points A,B,C,D so that the two vectors become equal. (.ggb)
     
  9. Drag the point A. (.ggb)
     
  10. Applet 10 (.ggb)
      
  11. This applet defines how to add two vectors. (.ggb)
      
  12. Applet 12 (.ggb)
