释义

Definition of vector product in English:

vector product

noun
Mathematics
  • The product of two real vectors in three dimensions which is itself a vector at right angles to both the original vectors. Its magnitude is the product of the magnitudes of the original vectors and the sine of the angle between their directions.

    Written as a × b

    Also called cross product
    Example sentencesExamples
    • We can use the direction perpendicular to this plane to give us the direction of our vector product.
    • As the name says, a scalar product of two vectors results in a scalar quantity, and a vector product in a vector quantity.
    • Today's vector products are a watered-down version of quaternion multiplication.
    • This shows that the vector product of two direct lattice vectors is easily expressed in terms of the basic reciprocal vectors.
    • The vector product is, from the properties of determinants, linear in both its vector factors.
