In physics, distance is the unit which only has magnitude and not the directions.Hence,the term used for the measurement of distance and direction together is known as displacement.Distance is a scalar quantity.Distance + direction =Displacement .It is a vector quantity.
A vector is like an arrow. It points in the relevant direction and its length is a measure of the distance.
2 km is a distance; south is a direction.
it goes in both direction to measure the distance of something from top to bottom.
scalar direction is a vector quantity
Distance. Velocity is a measure of how fast an object is moving in a specific direction, while speed is just the rate at which an object moves. Similarly, displacement is a measure of how far an object is from its starting point in a specific direction, while distance is just the total length traveled.
Speed is equal to distance divided by time Algebraically s = d/t To do this mechanically, you need a clock/watch to measure the time. and some form of distance measure e.g. ruler, or mile posts. In a motor car you have the speedometer and odometer. They measure the speed at any given moment, and the distance travelled.
There is no synonym to velocity. there is no directionality in velocity. speed is a measure of rotation around a center expressed in revolutions per unit of time. Velocity is a measure of distance in units of time with no direction. Vectors indicate direction.
The distance covered in the direction of motion or the opposite direction. Distance covered in the transverse direction is not included.
Nothing.Inches are a measure of distance, not weight.Nothing.Inches are a measure of distance, not weight.Nothing.Inches are a measure of distance, not weight.Nothing.Inches are a measure of distance, not weight.
Speed is a measure of the RATE at which a Distance is traversed. The units of distance would be Feet, inches, meters, etc. The units of Speed are Feet/Sec, inches/hour, meters/month, etc. When you speak of VELOCITY, you are adding the additional measure of DIRECTION. Direction may be expressed in Angular Degrees, Left or right, North, South, East, West, etc.
A scalar is a quantity that has only magnitude and no direction. In terms of measurement, a scalar measure is a numerical value representing the size or magnitude of a physical quantity without specifying the direction. Examples of scalar measures include temperature, distance, and speed.
Speed is a measure of how quickly an object is moving in a particular direction. It is calculated as the distance traveled per unit of time. Speed is a scalar quantity, meaning it has magnitude but no direction.
