If V and U are scalar multiples of each other, then V = k*U, where k is a positive or negative scalar quantity.
1) If k is positive, then V and U are heading in the same directions and one is a multiple of the other in magnitude.
2) If k is negative, then V and U are heading in opposite directions and one is a multiple of the other in magnitude
