Lately I've been considering the terminology we use in introductory physics
and how it is sometimes confusing and vague and interpreted differently by
physicists. For instance, when you talk about a vector component and
whether it is constant, increasing, or decreasing, are you referring to the
vector component with its sign or the magnitude of the vector component?
