small letter for father 2000 rupees​

Answer 1

Answer:

Electric charge is a scalar quantity. Apart from having a magnitude and direction, a quantity to be termed a vector should also obey the laws of vector addition such as triangle law of vector addition and parallelogram law of vector addition, only then the quantity is said to be a vector quantity. In the case of an electric current, when two currents meet at a junction, the resultant current of these will be an algebraic sum and not the vector sum. Therefore, an electric current is a scalar quantity although it possesses magnitude and direction.
