Force is a Vector Quantity

To fully describe the force acting upon an object, you must describe both the magnitude (size or numerical value) and the direction. ... The size of the arrow is reflective of the magnitude of the force and the direction of the arrow reveals the direction that the force is acting.

Answer 2

The quantities that must be specified to describe force are stated as follows:

1. Mass of body on which force is applied
2. Acceleration of the body

• A physical quantity is one that can be measured or quantified. (Dimension is the measurement, not quantity.)
• Force is the product of mass and acceleration, hence both of these quantities are needed to describe the force.
• 1 N force is the force required to accelerate a body of 1 kg by 1 m/s².
• Thus, the mass of the body and acceleration are the two quantities required to describe a force.
