Summation of vectors

Detail Page «

Computer Program Detail Page

written by Fu-Kwun Hwang

This EJS model allows the user to graphically add several vectors. The user can change the number of vectors and the size and direction of each vector. The simulation computes the vector sum. The components of each of the vectors can also be shown.

This Model was created using the Easy Java Simulations (Ejs) modeling tool. It is distributed as a ready-to-run (compiled) Java archive. Double clicking the ejs_ntnu_vectorsum.jar file will run the program if a Java runtime is installed.
