NON-COPLANAR VECTORS
Vector is a concept with several meanings. If we focus on the field of physics , we find that a vector is a quantity defined by its sense, its direction, its quantity and its point of application. The adjective coplanar , for its part, is used to describe lines or figures that are in the same plane . It is important to mention, however, that the term is not correct from a grammatical point of view and, therefore, does not appear in the dictionary produced by the Royal Spanish Academy ( RAE ). This entity mentions, instead, the word coplanar . The vectors that are part of the same plane, in this way, are coplanar vectors . In contrast, vectors that belong to different planes are called non-coplanar vectors . It is established, therefore, that non-coplanar vectors, as they are not in the same plane, it is essential to go to three axes, to a three-dimensional representation, to expose them. To find out whether the vectors are coplanar or non-coplanar, it is possible t...
