Question

Prove that ⇒ WEIGHT IS A VECTOR QUANTITY

Answer 1

Explanation:

Weight is a physical quantity which defines the effect of gravity on a given mass. ... According to law of vectors if a scalar is multiplied to a vector it may alter its magnitude and direction but the resultant quantity is always a Vector. This was your mathematical proof for weight as a vector quantity.Weight is a force which is a vector and has a magnitude and direction. Mass is a scalar. Weight and mass are related to one another, but they are not the same quantity. ... Mass and energy are scalar quantities, while momentum is a vector quantity.

Answer 2

Answer:

Weight = mass * gravity (acceleration) ⇒ would be = Force

Force is a vector quantity hence even weight is a vector quantity
