Plot a list of vectors in space
ResourceFunction["PlotVector3D"][{{x1,y1,z1},{x2,y2,z2},…}] plots the vectors {xi,yi,zi}, each located at the origin. | |
ResourceFunction["PlotVector3D"][{{x1,y1,z1},{x2,y2,z2},…},{p,q,r}] plots the vectors {xi,yi,zi}, each located at the point {p,q,r}. | |
ResourceFunction["PlotVector3D"][{{{x1,y1,z1},{p1,q1,r1}},{{x2,y2,z2},{p2,q2,r2}},…}] plots the vectors {xi,yi,zi} located at the corresponding points {pi,qi,ri}. | |
ResourceFunction["PlotVector3D"][{{x1,y1,z1},{x2,y2,z2},…},{{p1,q1,r1},{p2,q2,r2},…}] plots the vectors {xi,yi,zi} located at the corresponding points (pi,qi,r1}. |
"ArrowSize" | Large | specifies the size of the arrowhead |
"LocatedVector" | False | whether to draw vectors from the initial point (the first point of the list) |
VectorStyle | RGBColor[.3,.4,.7] | specifes the style of the vector |
Plot the vector (1,1,1) located at the origin:
In[1]:= |
Out[1]= |
Plot a list of vectors located at the origin:
In[2]:= |
Out[2]= |
Plot the vector (2,2,2) located at the point {-1,1,1}:
In[3]:= |
Out[3]= |
Plot a list of vectors located at the point {1,2,2}:
In[4]:= |
Out[4]= |
Plot a list of vectors located at different points. The first list is a list of vectors and the second is a list of initial points:
In[5]:= |
Out[5]= |
The length of the list of vectors must be the same as the length of the list of initial points:
In[6]:= |
Change the arrow size of each vector:
In[7]:= |
Out[7]= |
A located vector from the first point to the second point:
In[8]:= |
Out[8]= |
Setting "LocatedVector" to False draws the vector located at the origin:
In[9]:= |
Out[9]= |
A list of lists of pairs of vectors with the option "LocatedVector"→True draws located vectors from the first point in each sublist to the second point in each sublist:
In[10]:= |
Out[10]= |
Without the option being set, the second tuple in each list gives the located point, and the first tuple gives the direction:
In[11]:= |
Out[11]= |
Change the style of the vectors:
In[12]:= |
Out[12]= |
Set both the arrow size and style for each vector:
In[13]:= |
Out[13]= |
You can specify a vector located at a point using the second, third and fourth templates:
In[14]:= |
Out[14]= |
Use Arrow to produce any of these plots:
In[15]:= |
Out[15]= |
