Worked practice questions

Which pair of properties defines a Euclidean vector?

  1. Mass and weight
  2. Charge and volume
  3. Speed and time
  4. Size and direction
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. Size and direction

A vector is a geometric object fixed by how long it is and which way it points.

To add b to a graphically, where is the tail of b placed?

  1. At the tail of a
  2. At the zero point
  3. At the middle of a
  4. At the head of a
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. At the head of a

In the head-to-tail method, b starts where a ends and the sum runs from the start of a to the end of b.

Open this question →

In the parallelogram rule, a + b is represented by which part of the parallelogram?

  1. The centre point
  2. A shorter side
  3. The perimeter
  4. A diagonal
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. A diagonal

The two vectors form adjacent sides and their sum is the diagonal from the common point.
