It is neither a scalar or a vector? Scalar and vectors are used to describe quantities, for example scalars include distance and mass, while vectors include weight and velocity. We do not say that a situation is a scalar or a vector.

Is momentum a scalar quality?

A vector quantity is one which transforms like the coordinates. In other words, if a coordinate system is transformed by an operator , any vector quantity in the old coordinate system can be transformed to its equivalent in the new system by the same operator. An example of a vector quantity is displacement (r). If displacement is a vector, the rate of change of displacement (dr/dt) or the velocity is also a vector. The mass of an object (M) is a scalar quantity. Multiplying a vector by a scalar yields a vector. So momentum, which is the mass multiplied by velocity, is also a vector. Momentum too transforms like the coordinates, much like any other vector. The definition of a vector as a quantity having "magnitude and direction" is simply wrong. For example, electric current has "magnitude and direction", but is a scalar and not a vector.


What should you do when you are going through an intersection and another car pulls up to the stop sign and stops?

When going through an intersection and another car pulls up to the stop sign and stops, you should yield the right of way to the car that arrived first at the stop sign. Wait for the other car to proceed before continuing through the intersection.

Do you have to stop at a stop sign with a white rim around it?

Yes, stops signs that have the white border are indeed optional. They are set as more of a yield sign when heavy traffic is present. Other than that those are just there to slow down rather than to make complete stop.


When at a stop sign and there is no white line where do you stop?

If there is no white line, you must stop before the stop sign, not past it. In some cases, it is okay to edge slowly forward so you are able to look left and right to make sure there is no traffic. If at a 3, 4 or all-way stop sign, stop before the stop sign and if there is no other cars at the other stop signs, you may continue on. Whoever stops first at a 3, 4 or all-way stop has the right away to go first, but many people don't follow that now.
