Cartesian vectors don't form a group under multiplication* so division isn't defined.
*either kind. They are not closed under the dot product and there is no cross product identity.

@StefanEJones
Being picky:
Velociraptor = d (Distanceraptor) / dt
(Works when Distanceraptor isn't constant)

@StefanEJones if you integrate that you can find the acceleraptor

But unlike speed, velocity must have a directional component, how is this handled?

@cptbutton @BorisBarbour @StefanEJones it's actually Positionraptor/Timeraptor.

This implies the existence of an acceleraptor.

Actually that should be distanceraptor/time because otherwise the raptors cancel each other out...

Also, it's just a gag. Don't overthink it.

@StefanEJones the component raptors are seldom discussed since they post no threat individually: the distanceraptor can reach you anywhere on the planet, but only the timeraptor knows when to show up.
