Company

ToolChest Software, Inc. was established in 2005 to provide students and teachers alike with high quality
educational physics software products that combine authoritative on-screen reference texts and annotative
figures with hands-on calculating tools that provide numerical solutions to a wide range of
typical physics
problems that commonly appear in high school and introductory college physics textbooks, homework
assignments and tests.   Our staff, which has a combined total of over fifty years of experience in education and
research in physics, chemistry, mathematics and communications, is dedicated to raising the academic standards
in science eduction by providing students and their teachers with the educational multimedia tools necessary to
succeed.   

ToolChest Software, Inc. is pleased to present the book
A Reference Guide to Vector Algebra that incorporates
the Vector Algebra Tools as an innovative multimedia text that encompass a dynamic approach to teaching and
learning mathematics and physics.  Our designers and developers are committed to creating tools which not only
clarify the basic principles of the subject, but also kindle the imagination of the student.  Teachers find themselves
comfortable with these materials because they are designed to fit neatly into the current curriculum and are
therefore useful for lesson plans, lectures, and encouraging the necessary practice of solving physics problems.  
In particular, the Vector Algebra Tools are used in the classroom by instructors who want the student to master
concepts as well as test taking and problem solving skills in vectors.  Students are inspired to learn while being
assured that the material in the text will help them pass exams.

The benefits of using
A Reference Guide to Vector Algebra including the Vector Algebra Tools enables one to:

  • Solve a wide variety of vector algebra and vector application problems, including scenario problems,
      quickly and accurately by using the Vector Arithmetic, Vector Composition, Scalar (Dot) Product, Vector      
      (Cross) Product, Scalar and Vector Triple Products and Resultant Vector Tools, singly or in combination.

  • Demonstrate vector principles and concepts by empirically changing the variables in a problem and
    observing numerical trends in the results.

  • Quickly refer to instructional text from both from the screen and book that highlights the key concepts,
    discusses real world applications and contains numerous problem solving applications in vector algebra for
    each tool.

  • Easily access and reference to on-screen and textbook definitions, principles and laws and graphic
    illustrations of the underlying vector concepts.

  • Learn how to set up and solve vector problems by following worked example problems in vector algebra
    and vector application problems in plane geometry, mechanics and electromagnetism.

  • Discover cross-subject and real world applications in the "Did You Know?" section for the various Vector
    Algebra Tools.

  • Eliminate time-consuming searches for similar calculators and software programs that in the end only solve
    one or two types of vectors or vector algebra problems or do not produce physically real answers!

A Reference Guide to Vector Algebra including the Vector Algebra Tools are now being used in high schools and
colleges throughout the USA.  We welcome you to try
