Dot (scalar) product• A scalar product of two vectors
• The product shows the magnitude of the influence that one vector has on another.

Cross (vector) product• A vector product produced by two vectors
• It also measures the interaction between the 2 vectors
• The vector should be the same irrespective of the vector set’s orientation
• Therefore, we need a vector which remains constant irrespective of orientation
• Which direction should the vector point in order to satisfy this requirement?
