Help with Vector Line of Support: Can't Find It on Google

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The line of support of a vector is synonymous with the line of application. It provides essential information regarding the vector's direction and magnitude, particularly when the specific location of the vector is relevant. This clarification is crucial for understanding vector representation in physics and mathematics. For further details, refer to the resource provided at Transtutors.

What is line of support of a vector ? I could not find it anywhere on google !

Hi phymatter! :smile:

It's the same as the line of application.

Sometimes we're not bothered about where the vector is, only its direction and magnitude.

But if we are bothered, then the line of application or support is the extra piece of information that defines the vector.

For confirmation, see http://www.transtutors.com/math-homework-help/vectors/." . :wink:
