  1. Formal definition of position vectors - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Dec 22, 2019 · Position vector is basically the same thing as a direction vector or a geometric vector. I would appreciate if you didn't answer or comment without reading the description. A position vector is …

  2. Simplistic question about position vectors - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Jan 3, 2018 · In my book it defines position vectors as vectors that area tied to the origin, ie they can't be moved like free vectors. Granted that this is a correct definition, it got me thinking: are they even

  3. how do you find position vector? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Feb 12, 2015 · A Position vector is a vector that describes position of a point in space. Often the position of such a point is nothing but the x,y, and z coordinates of the point with origin as the reference point.

  4. ijk2keplerian - Keplerian orbit elements using position and velocity ...

    This MATLAB function calculates Keplerian orbit elements for given position and velocity vectors in the geocentric equatorial coordinate system.

  5. Finding position vector - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    May 1, 2017 · Finding position vector Ask Question Asked 8 years, 7 months ago Modified 4 years, 8 months ago

  6. ecef2eci - Position and velocity vectors in Earth-centered inertial ...

    This MATLAB function calculates the position vector in the Earth-centered inertial (ECI) coordinate system for a given position vector in the Earth-centered Earth-fixed (ECEF) coordinate system at a …

  7. Constructing position vector - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Dec 23, 2024 · And I recently took a linear algebra class and heard about position vectors. Here, I started to have questions about the process of constructing position vectors. Since this is a linear …

  8. Intuitive understanding of relationship between unit vectors and ...

    Intuitive understanding of relationship between unit vectors and position vector Ask Question Asked 11 years, 1 month ago Modified 6 years, 10 months ago

  9. What does the cross product of the velocity and position vector …

    Feb 21, 2021 · The laws of motion are second-order differential equations, which means trajectories are determined by position and velocity at a given moment in time. Thus, if a force field is radial, we can …

  10. Orthogonal Position and Velocity Vectors - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Aug 31, 2015 · In vector terms, you can consider working in spherical coordinates, enforcing $\dot\rho=0$ and taking the dot product of $\mathbf {r}$ and $\dot {\mathbf {r}}$ and showing via trig …
