Is velocity a scalar quantity or vector quantity?
Velocity is a vector.Its magnitude is called 'speed'.
What is the unit for displacement?
Displacement is measured in distance, so any measurement dealing with only distance will work. The SI units are meters.
How do distance and displacemen and different?
Look distance is the total length covered by a body and displacement is the shortest length covered by a body. Also displacement is a vector quantity (has both magnitude and direction) and distance is a scalar quantity (has only magnitude and no direction)
Why is speed classified as a scalar quantity and velocity classified as a vector quantity?
Speed is the rate of which an object is moving altogether and is a scalar quantity and thus only requires a magnitude and is found by the use of the formula speed=distance/time SI unit = m.s-1 Velocity is the rate of which a object is moving in a given direction, so is vector quantity and both a magnitude and direction are required found by the formula velocity=displacement/time SI unit = m.s-2
Is electric potential difference a vector?
We generally think of electric current as a scalar quantity. When we think of 1/4th amp or 20 amps, we think of an amount (a scalar quantity) of current flow. On another plane, the electromagnetic forces at work in current generation are actually force vectors. In the traditional sense, electric current, which is the movement of electrons, is from negative to positive. This is not a vector, though. In the macro or "large" world, think of current as scalar.---------------------------------------------------------------------The beauty is that though current is not a vector definitely its direction of flow is used to make length as vector. I is not vector. dl is not vector but I dl will be considered as vector. So innovative and essential concept.Current density is a vector which appears in Maxwell's equations.
Is displacment vector or scalar?
Displacement is a vector quantity and not a scalar quantity. This is because displacement has both magnitude and direction.
Is displacement vector quantity or scalar quantity?
You'll need to provide a context. In naval engineering, displacement is a scalar quantity; if you're talking about motion, then it's a vector quantity.
Is displacement a scalar quantity?
Yes. Displacement requires a direction and hence is a vector
What is displacement a scalar or vector quantity?
You'll need to provide a context. In naval engineering, displacement is a scalar quantity; if you're talking about motion, then it's a vector quantity.
Is electric flux density scalar or vector?
Scalar
Is electric potential a vector quantity?
No, electric potential is a scalar quantity, not a vector quantity.
Is density a scalar quantity?
Yes.
Which is a scalar quantity a. displacement b. distance c. force d. acceleration?
b. distance is a scalar quantity.
Is volume a vector or scalar?
Density is a scalar quantity. We don't talk about the density of a material as having direction, which is a characteristic of a vector quantity.
Is electric current scaler or vector quantity?
Electric current is a scalar quantity as it only has magnitude (typically measured in amperes) and no direction.
What is the point of view why we need to study scalar and vector quantity?
There is a big difference between Scalar and vector quantity. Vector quantity means something where direction is not important.eg- Displacement(the shortest distance between the displacement points of an object). whereas in scalar quantity Direction is important. eg. Speed
Is electric current or scalar quantity?
yes it is
