Calculus III: Three Dimensional Vectors (Level 3 of 3)

The video tutorial covers 3D vectors through four examples. It starts with an introduction to 3D vectors, followed by examples of vectors in the YZ and XZ planes, demonstrating how to sketch vectors and find their component forms. The tutorial then explores finding a point two-thirds of the way between two points using vectors. Finally, it addresses a static equilibrium problem, calculating tension forces in a 3D space. The video concludes with a preview of the next series on the dot product.
