Is the force of 10 newtons a vector?

A downward force of 6 Newtons is a weight measurement. It is taken to be the force on the object due to gravity.


Is gravity a vector measurement?

The acceleration and force of gravity are vectors.


Is vector the same as velocity?

No. A vector is any measurement where a direction is relevant. Velocity is one such measure, but there are others, unrelated to velocity (for instance, force).


What type of measurement is this the downward force of 6 newtons?

It is a vector quantity. It has both a magnitude and a direction.


What are two exambles of vector quantities?

A vector quantity is any measurement where the direction is relevant, such as position, velocity, acceleration, force, electric field, etc.


Which measurement is a vector quantity?

A vector quantity measures the movement of a particular object in a given direction. An example of a vector quantity is velocity.


What is the measurement used to measure force?

There is something called the Vector Scale, or something like that. It measures force using a graph, or a chart.


Do all vectors have speed?

No. A vector is any measurement that includes a direction, for example velocity, momentum, acceleration, or force.


Is mass a vector measurement?

No, it's a scalar measurement because it has magnitude only. A vector measurement has both a magnitude and a direction.


How can you tell a measurement is vector?

If it has both length and direction it is a vector.


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 a force scalar or vector?

It's a vector, and I believe it always points upward.
