Guide - scalar-vector multiplication calculator

To find the product of a vector by a scalar:

• Select the vector dimension and the vector form of representation;
• Type the coordinates of the vector;
• Type a scalar (a real number or fraction) and press the button "=" and you will have a detailed step-by-step solution.

The product of non-zero vector by the number is a vector collinear with given (codirectional given if the number is positive, having the opposite direction if the number is negative) and its magnitude is equal to the module of the vector multiplied by the module of number.

The product of non-zero vector by the number is a vector which coordinates are equal to the corresponding coordinates of the vector, multiplied by the number.

In the case of the 3d problem the product of vector a = {a_x ; a_y ; a_z} by the number k can be found using the following formula:

k · a = {k · a_x ;  k · a_y ;  k ·a_z}
