Cross Product Calculator: Vector Multiplication
Calculate the cross product of two 3D vectors.
What is a Cross Product?
In vector algebra, the cross product of two vectors a and b results in a third vector that is perpendicular to both. It is commonly used in physics to calculate torque and magnetic force.
Calculation (Determinant Method)
- x = (a.y * b.z) - (a.z * b.y)
- y = (a.z * b.x) - (a.x * b.z)
- z = (a.x * b.y) - (a.y * b.x)
