Is the number of leaves on a tree scalar or vector?
scalar lol
What is scalar vector?
Vector is NOT a scalar. The two (vector and scalar) are different things. A vector is a quantity (measurement) in which a direction is important. A scalar is a quantity in which a direction is NOT important.
Is it possible to multiply a vector quantity to a scalar quantity?
The product of scalar and vector quantity is scalar.
Is AC a vector or scalar quantity?
current is vector or scalar
Is Moment Arm a scalar or vector quantity?
vector
How will you multiply a vector by positive number?
A positive scalar multiplied by a vector, will only change the vector's magnitude, not the direction. A negative scalar multiplied by the vector will reverse the direction by 180°.

What is a scalar times a vector?
A scalar times a vector is a vector.
Why vector divided by scalar is equal to vector?
It helps to understand division as the opposite of multiplication. In this case, v / s = x; a vector divided by a scalar is something unknown. Turn this around, into a multiplication: x times s = v. In other words: What must I multiply by a scalar to get a vector?
Is inertia is a scalar or vector?
vector
Can a null vector be added to zero?
No, a vector cannot be added to a scalar. You could multiply a null vector by zero (and you'd get the null vector), but you can't add them.
What is scalar vector?
Vector is NOT a scalar. The two (vector and scalar) are different things. A vector is a quantity (measurement) in which a direction is important. A scalar is a quantity in which a direction is NOT important.
Can scalar be a negative number?
Yes, a scalar can be a negative number. For instance: c<x₁,x₂> = <cx₁,cx₂> such that <x₁,x₂> is a vector. Let c = -1 for instance. Then, we have this vector: <-x₁,-x₂> Compared to <x₁,x₂>, <-x₁,-x₂> has negative signs. In physics and mathematics, if we multiply the vector or something by a negative value scalar, then the direction of the vector is reversed, and the magnitude stays the same. If the magnitude increases/decreases, and the direction of the vector is reversed, then we can multiply the vector by any negative non-1 scalar value.
Is it possible to multiply a vector quantity to a scalar quantity?
The product of scalar and vector quantity is scalar.
Is momentum a vector?
Momentum is a vector quantity because the definition of momentum is that it is an object's mass multiplied by velocity. Velocity is a vector quantity that has direction and the mass is scalar. When you multiply a vector by a scalar, it will result in a vector quantity.
