About this Simulation

This simulation lets learners visualize vector addition using the graphical (head-to-tail) method. Students can adjust multiple vectors, observe how they combine, and determine the resultant vector's magnitude and direction. Interactive controls reveal vector components and support hands-on exploration of vector mathematics.

Learning objectives: Understand how to add vectors graphically by placing them head-to-tail | Determine the magnitude and direction of a resultant vector from component vectors | Visualize the relationship between vector components and their sum
