OABC is a parallelogram. \(\overrightarrow{OA}\) is represented by the vector \(\mathbf{a}\) and \(\overrightarrow{OC}\) is represented by the vector \(\mathbf{c}\). M is the mid-point of BC and N is ...
Vector quantities have both magnitude and an associated direction. This makes them different from scalar quantities, which just have magnitude.
