What else can I help you with?
Are vectors and scalars the same?
No, scalars and vectors are not the same. Scalars are measurements in numbers. Examples: work, energy, mass, speed, and distance. Scalars measure in one magnitude. Vectors measure velocity, acceleration, force, and momentum.
What has vector?
Force, velocity, acceleration, and displacement are vectors. Mass, temperature, time, cost, and speed are scalars (not vectors).
What are difference between scalars and vectors?
What are difference between scalars and vectors
One difference between vectors and scalars?
Vectors have a direction associated with them, scalars do not.
How do you classify physical quantities?
Physical quantities can be classified as scalars or vectors. Scalars have only magnitude, such as mass or temperature, while vectors have both magnitude and direction, like velocity or force. Scalars and vectors are further categorized into base quantities (e.g. length, time) and derived quantities (e.g. speed, acceleration).
Is it possible the add a vector and scalar?
no!!!only scalars and scalars and only vectors and vectors can be added.
Why is the difference between scalars and vectors important?
Without the difference between scalars and vectors the Universe doesn't work !
Are scalars a measured quantity?
A scalar is anything that has only a magnitude. Usually people contrast scalars with vectors. Speed and temperature are scalars. They only have a magnitude (50 mph or 32 degrees) Velocity and acceleration are vectors. They have both a magnitude and a direction (50 mph north, 9 m/(s^2) downwards )
Do vectors have quantity?
Both scalars and vectors have quantity. The difference is a vector has quantity and direction, whereas scalars only have quantity.
Why can't we add or subtract vectors like scalars?
Because scalars do not take in the direction but just the magnitude while vectors can. You can add vectors ONLY if they are in the same direction.
Why are vectors considered to be vectors?
Vectors are considered vectors because they have both magnitude (size or length) and direction. This property distinguishes vectors from scalars, which only have magnitude. In physics and mathematics, vectors are essential for representing physical quantities like force, velocity, and displacement that have both size and direction.
Is velocity a vetor or scalar?
Velocity is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude (speed) and direction. Scalars are quantities that only have magnitude and no direction, while vectors have both magnitude and direction.
