Scalar is numerical
Vector has magnitude and direction
Vectors can be expressed in Cartesian or Polar form
o Cartesian: sum of components
r^ =|r|<
r x =|r|cos ,
r y =|r|sin
Cartesian to Polar
^ y ^j
r =r x i+r
|r|= r 2x +r 2y ,

Parallelogram method: take the two vectors, connect at bases, draw lines
perpendicular to vector edges. Draw vector from starting point to new
corner; that is added vector.

Newtons 1st Law: A body moving linearly or at rest will continue moving or
remain at rest unless acted on by a non-zero net force
Newtons 2nd Law: The acceleration of a particle is proportional to the net
force acting on the particle and is in the same direction as the force
Newtons 3rd Law: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction
Free body Diagram
o Identifies all external forces acting on the body, and the direction they
point in
No internal forces
o Replace physical contacts with equivalent forces
