Why is Speed Scalar and Velocity a vector quantity ? How Acceleration is related to Velocity ?
Answers
Answer:
speed has only magnitude
velocity has both magnitude and direction
acceleration=rate of change of velocity
(v1+v2)/time=acceleration
Mark me brainliest
Answer:
Speed is a scalar quantity – it is the rate of change in the distance travelled by an object, while velocity is a vector quantity – it is the speed of an object in a particular direction.
Velocity -- Velocity is a physical vector quantity; both magnitude and direction are needed to define it. there is a change in speed, direction or both, then the object has a changing velocity and is said to be undergoing an acceleration.
Acceleration is defined to be the rate of change of the velocity.
