This interactive applet tests the user's knowledge of vector subtraction. By clicking and dragging, users draw two vectors and then construct a line to show the difference between them. Afterward, they may check their answer against that of the applet.
This item is part of a larger collection of simulation based physics models sponsored by the MAP project (Modular Approach to Physics).
