its velocity, which is a vector.
Acceleration is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.
Speed is a scalar quantity because it has magnitude but not direction, velocity is a vector quantity because it has magnitude and direction.
Yes , speed in a given direction is called velocity. Velocity is a vector quantity that is it has both magnitude as well as direction.
Speed is only a magnitude (single value) while velocity is both magnitude and direction. Direction is a vector.
Yes, always. Velocity is a vector, meaning it has both a magnitude and a direction. You must account for the direction. Speed is the magnitude of velocity and has no direction.
Velocity refers to both speed and direction. A vector refers to both magnitude (the speed in this case) and a direction. Speed without reference to a direction is a scalar, a magnitude without direction.
Acceleration is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.
Speed is a scalar quantity because it has magnitude but not direction, velocity is a vector quantity because it has magnitude and direction.
A Vector quantity accounts for both magnitude and direction.
Velocity is a vector quantity that has both a magnitude and direction. It represents how fast something is moving and what direction it is traveling. Speed is commonly mistaken for velocity and substituted as equals. However, speed is a scalar quantity and only has a magnitude component. Speed only refers to how fast something is going. It tells nothing of its direction..
Yes , speed in a given direction is called velocity. Velocity is a vector quantity that is it has both magnitude as well as direction.
Velocity has a direction.
Speed is only a magnitude (single value) while velocity is both magnitude and direction. Direction is a vector.
Yes, always. Velocity is a vector, meaning it has both a magnitude and a direction. You must account for the direction. Speed is the magnitude of velocity and has no direction.
You have a velocity when both a speed and a direction is specified. This kind of magnitude is known as a "vector" - that is, when it is relevant to state a direction, as well as a magnitude, we speak about "vectors".
speed is a scalar quantity with magnitude only but no direction; velocity is a vector with both magnitude (speed) AND direction, which could be positive or negative
It is a vector since it has both a magnitude and a direction. Scalar quantities only have a magnitude.
