Vector product of two vectors

The video tutorial explains the differences between scalar and vector products of vectors. It introduces the concept of vector product, also known as cross product, and describes its properties, including its non-commutative nature. The tutorial further explains how to calculate the vector product using the right-hand rule and provides a detailed breakdown of its component form and determinant representation.
