the National Science Foundation
This simulation offers beginning students practice in two-dimensional vector addition. It is relatively simple, as the x and y components of each vector are integers. Given the magnitude and direction of two vectors, students must determine the x and y components, the length of each, and the resultant vector sum.

See Annotations (below) for a tutorial on the topic of vector fundamentals, recommended by The Physics Front editors.
See Related Materials for a more advanced simulation on vector addition in which the components are not limited to integer values.
