Question

Which of the following is a vector quantity? a. Acceleration b. Distance c. Speed d. Pressure ​

Answer 1

Which of the following is vector quantity ?
Answer is - a. Acceleration

Answer 2

Answer:

Acceleration is a vector quantity.

Explanation:

Vector quantities are the quantities that give magnitude as well as direction. Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of displacement. Since displacement is a vector quantity acceleration will so be a vector quantity. Other quantities like distance, speed and pressure do not depend on their direction. They have only magnitude. So these are scalar quantities, not vectors.
