Abstract

Besides the notions used in Mathematics, created by abstraction from environmental observation (for example the geometric concepts) or quantitative and qualitative research of the natural phenomena (for example the notion of number) in mathematics there are elements from other sciences. The notion of vector from physics has been studied and developed creating vector calculus, which became a useful tool for both mathematics and physics. All physical quantities are represented by vectors (for example the force, the velocity).
