a vector quantity has both direction (sign) and magnitude like displacement towards right or left (direction) and has a certain value (magnitude)
Gravity is a force, and forces have magnitude and direction; hence, it is a vector.
Ion Know ... You Tell Me
The two vectors are P & Q..Sum of the two vecotors is P+Q=R..R Is called the resultant vector of this two vector..the action of the resultant vector R is equal to the actions of two vectors P & Q..
these type of quantities are called derived quantities. Their value depends on some fundamental quantities or some other derived quantities. eg. force is a derived quantity whose value depends on mass(fundamental) and acceleration(derived).
Decibels (dB) mean a logarithmic unit of measurement that expresses the magnitude of a physical quantity relative to a specified or implied reference level. Since it expresses a ratio of two quantities with the same unit, it is a dimensionless unit. Decibel is Decibel!
Charge is not a vector.
It is necessary to know the magnitude and the direction of the vector.
Magnitude and direction
A magnitude and a direction.They're the two fundamental measurements in a vector quantity.
there are two types of quantities - Scalars and vectors. Scalars are quantities which intrinsically have the property of magnitude only. Vectors are quantities which intrinsically have both the properties of magnitude and direction.
magnitude(size) of the vector and its direction
A vector quantity is any measurement where the direction is relevant, such as position, velocity, acceleration, force, electric field, etc.
The resultant of two vectors cannot be a scalar quantity.
A magnitude, and a direction. Or, components in two directions, often called "x-component" and "y-component".
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.
Mainly because they aren't scalar quantities. A vector in the plane has two components, an x-component and a y-component. If you have the x and y components for each vector, you can add them separately. This is very similar to the addition of scalar quantities; what you can't add directly, of course, is their lengths. Similarly, a vector in space has three components; you can add each of the components separately.
Derived quantities are quantities which are made or found from other major quantities. There are two types of quantities. Ones are which are recognized throughout the world and using them other quantities are made.
