Elementary Classical Mechanics. Chapter 1, Lecture 2. Kinematics–Scalars, Vectors, and Vector Algebra  In this lecture I will discuss the dot, or scalar product of two vectors and the cross, or vector product of two vectors.

This course is based on my book:

Wiggins, Stephen (2017): Elementary Classical Mechanics. figshare. Dataset. https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.5309851

A solutions manual for all of the problems in the book is also available.
