A vector is a mathematical and physical quantity with both magnitude (size) and direction. It is often represented graphically as a directed line segment, with the length of the arrow representing its magnitude and the arrowhead indicating its direction. Vectors are used in fields like physics and engineering to represent quantities such as velocity, acceleration, and force, and can be expressed in components as ordered lists of numbers (e.g., \([x,y]\) in 2D or \([x,y,z]\) in 3D).

💡Key characteristics
• Magnitude: The length of the vector, which indicates its size or intensity. For example, a force of \(60\) Newtons has a magnitude of \(60\).
• Direction: The way the vector points. In physics, this is crucial for quantities like velocity, which can be represented as "how fast" and "in what direction" an object is moving.
• Representation:
⚬Geometrically: As an arrow with a starting point (tail) and an ending point (head).
⚬Algebraically: As an ordered list of numbers called components, such as \([x,y]\) for a 2D vector or \([x,y,z]\) for a 3D vector.
• Notation:
⚬Boldface letters (e.g., u).
⚬A letter with an arrow above it (e.g., \(\vec{u}\)).
⚬A tilde underneath (e.g., \(\overset{\sim }{u}\)).

💡Applications and other meanings
• Physics and Engineering: Crucial for describing forces, velocity, acceleration, and other physical phenomena.
• Linear Algebra: Vectors are a fundamental concept, forming the basis for vector spaces, where vectors can be added together and multiplied by scalars (real numbers).
• Computer Science: Used to represent data, such as a list of features for a house price model.
• Other fields: The term "vector" can have other meanings, such as a carrier of a disease-causing agent or a DNA molecule used in genetic engineering.
