Scalars and Vectors
Scalar is a number which expresses quantity. Examples: mass, volume, energy, money
Vector is a quantity which has both magnitude and direction. The magnitude of a vector is a scalar.Examples: displacement, velocity, acceleration, electric field

Vector are represented by directed line segment.
Length of the line segment is the magnitude of the vector.
Direction of the line segment is the direction of the vector.

Same vector - Line segment with the same length and direction.
In each case the vector start a specific point then moves 2 units to the left and 5 units up.

The general notation for a n-dimensional vector is
The i-unit vector points in the positive x-direction.
The j-unit vector points in the positive y-direction.
The k-unit vector points in the positive z-direction (upward).

Vector subtraction : Subtract “b” from “a”.
Graphically,Method 1: add the negative of “b” to “a”.Draw a vector from the start of “a” to the end of “b”. This is the resultant vector.

Method 2
Start vector “b” at the start of vector “a”.Then draw the resultant vector from the end of “b” to the end of “a”.
