The discussion revolves around understanding collinear vectors and their magnitudes in a vector mapping context. Participants are exploring the relationships between various vectors and their orientations relative to one another.
The discussion is active, with participants confirming certain statements and questioning the validity of others. Some guidance has been offered regarding the identification of collinear vectors, but there is no explicit consensus on the relationships being discussed.
Participants are working within the constraints of a vector mapping exercise, and there are references to a figure that is not visible in the text. The discussion includes assumptions about vector directions and magnitudes that are being questioned.
A vector that lies along the same line. The idea is that a vector starts in the origin and points in a particular direction. In that context, AB and DE are collinear and so are AB and EDttpp1124 said:
I can't. But I can confirm the top one
So then the magnitude of BD is AE.BvU said:A vector that lies along the same line. The idea is that a vector starts in the origin and points in a particular direction. In that context, AB and DE are collinear and so are AB and ED

Magnitude is length. So AB and BA have magnitude 5 cm.
No. AE is a vector, not a magnitude (i.e. not a number, a scalar)ttpp1124 said:

So then collinear to AD would either be BE or EBBvU said:
It has to be in the same direction. I will use EBBvU said:
Don't you see any lines at all that are parallel to AD in the figure ?BvU said:
