Hamilton had discovered vector division.

Q=A/B (Q is quaternion. A and B are two vectors.)
Q.w = A dot B / B^2 ----- (3)
Q.v = AXB / B^2 ----- (4)

Equation (3) is applied to divide a length vector(L) by a
velocity(V).
L/V = (L dot V) / V^2 or
L/V = L^2 / (L dot V)

Also we can calculate pressure(p),
p = F/A = (F dot A)/ A^2 = |F| cos(theta) / |A|
where F is force, and A is area.

Equation (4) is applied to divide an area vector(A) by a length
vector(L).
A/L = AXL / L^2 or
A/L = A^2 / AXL

You may find the above applications in this thread.

Dear Pmb,

Do you have any questions?

SRians always describe themself a superior understanding
of Einstein's four dimensional spacetime, but they are
ill-trained in three dimensional vector algebra. What a
bloody joke.

I'm not an SRian, nor do I need training.

Mass is not a vector, what a bloody joke.

Stupid physicists have been doing vector division for
a hundred years; they need a remedial course in 3D
vector algebra.
