vector

1. n. Same as Radius vector. Source: opted

2. n. A directed quantity, as a straight line, a force, or a velocity. Vectors are said to be equal when their directions are the same their magnitudes equal. Cf. Scalar. Source: opted

3. n. a variable quantity that can be resolved into components Source: wordnet

4. n. a straight line segment whose length is magnitude and whose orientation in space is direction Source: wordnet

5. n. any agent (person or animal or microorganism) that carries and transmits a disease Source: wordnet

6. n. (genetics) a virus or other agent that is used to deliver DNA to a cell Source: wordnet

7. 1. Same as Radius vector. 2. (Math.) A directed quantity, as a straight line, a force, or a velocity. Vectors are said to be equal when their directions are the same their magnitudes equal. Cf. Scalar. Note: In a triangle, either side is the vector sum of the other two sides taken in proper order; the process finding the vector sum of two or more vectors is vector addition (see under Addition).
