Vectors and the Geometry of Space: The Dot Product
In this video I go over further into vectors and this time look at multiplying vectors with the dot product. In my previous videos I discussed adding vectors and multiplying vectors with a scalar. This time I discuss multiplication of two vectors via the dot product, which is defined as multiplying all corresponding vector components and adding them up, thus giving a scalar or real number value; aka not a vector. Further in the video I show that this way of defining vector multiplication has useful applications since it can be reinterpreted in terms of the angle between 2 vectors. I also discuss vector projections, direction cosines, and applications to physics of the dot product.
