Is the muzzle velocity a scalar or vector quantity?

I think Scalar


What is Scalar Velocity?

Velocity is a vector , which it means it has both magnitude and direction. Scalars have only magnitude. The magnitude of a velocity vector is usually called speed . Although I have never heard it called by that name, scalar velocity is speed.


If you have a constant velocity do you have to have a constant speed?

Yes, speed is the scalar of velocity.


What does the velocity include that the speed does not?

Direction. Velocity is a vector, speed is a scalar.


Is instantaneous velocity a vector or scalar quantity?

Instantaneous velocity is a vector quantity.


Which is vector speed or velocity?

"Speed" is a scalar; "velocity" is a vector.


Is velocity speed?

As used in physics, the two are different. Speed is a scalar, velocity a vector.


Is velocity scalars or vectors?

It is a vector since it has both a magnitude and a direction. Scalar quantities only have a magnitude.


What is a vetor?

A vector is an entity with both direction and magnitude, often used in mathematics and physics to represent quantities such as force or velocity. Vectors are typically represented by arrows in diagrams, with the length of the arrow representing the magnitude and the direction of the arrow indicating the direction of the vector.


How are speed and velocity diffrent?

Speed is a scalar, velocity is a vector. In other words, when the direction of the speed is relevant, it is called a velocity.


What is different between speed and velocity?

Speed is a scalar quantity that refers to how fast an object is moving, whereas velocity is a vector quantity that refers to both the speed and direction of an object's motion. Speed is the magnitude of velocity.


Is speed a scalar quantity?

speed has only magnitude but no direction associate to it, if you consider velocity it consists of magnitude along with the direction. Hence speed is considered as a scalar quantity
