Define seater and vector quantity
Define seater and vector quantity
Answers
Explanation:
A scalar quantity can be described using a number (in appropriate units). Not all physical quantities can be denoted with magnitude only. Physical quantities, which have both direction and magnitude, are called vectors. A direction must be associated with a number to define a vector quantity.
Appropriate Question:-
Define scalar and vector quantity
Solution :
A physical quantity that has both magnitude and direction is known as vector quantity.
For Example :- Displacement, velocity, Acceleration.
Here, given all examples are dependent on both magnitude as well as direction. Hence these are vector quantities.
- Vectors can be added/ subtracted using laws of vectors.
1) Triangle law
2)Parallelogram law
3) Polygon law
- Vectors can be change by either changing in magnitude or in direction
Scalars :-
A physical quantity that has only magnitude is known as scalar quantity.
For Example :- Mass, Distance, Speed, volume , power etc.
