- 3-3 Adding vectors geometrically
- Vector a and vector b can be added geometrically to yield the resultant vector sum, s.
- Place the second vector, b, with its tail touching the head of the first vector, a.
- The vector sum, s, is the vector joining the tail of a to the head of b.
- The vector sum, or resultant
- Is the result of performing vector addition
- Represents the net displacement of two or more displacement vectors
