Abstract
he numbers have been used from the antiquity by the need to represent and
T
work with quantities; if to these numbers, named technically like scalars, we annex a
sense and a direction they turn into a magnitude universally known as vectors. The
vectors arise as a mathematical tool to facilitate the analysis of the physical
phenomena, since these possess the characteristics of a displacement and the
combination of them can be realized by different methods. The understanding of the
vectors is essential as a tool to represent different physical and mathematical quantities
of interest, since they it are the forces in physical sense and in the field of the
mathematics, they constitute the base on which one agrees a great part of the
geometry. An example of a vectorial magnitude is the force that acts on an object, since
his effect depends, besides his intensity or module, the direction in the one that
operates. The combination of different forces or vectorial magnitudes can be realized by
means of the basic operations of vectors, of analytical or graphical form, which are: the
sum or subtraction of vectors, the product point and the vectorial product.
In this educational software, which is written in language Python by a module of
visualization, these operations are realized analytical, that is to say, producing
respective components of the vectors. The values of above mentioned components are
inserted on screen, as well as also the process that is wanted to carry out, well be
supreme, subtraction, product point or vectorial product and it shows a window where
there can be visualized the entered vectors and his resultant vector. With this tool one
wants to facilitate the understanding and study of vectors to university and
pre-university level.
