Vector measurements involve a direction. For example, 28km/h, E. The measurement of 28km/h is present, plus the direction, east. Displacement, velocity, force, and acceleration are examples of vector quantities.

Does acceleration involve a direction?
Yes it is a vector quantity.
What word indicates the difference between vector and scalar measurements?
Direction. A scalar has only magnitude, while a vector has both magnitude and direction.
Is speed a scalar or vector?
Speed is scalar because it does not involve a direction.
What distinguishes the measurements of speed from that of velocity and acceleration?
Velocity = speed, and the direction in which it's happening Acceleration = rate at which speed is changing, and the direction in which it's changing
Refraction and what both involve the bending of waves?
Waves change direction through refraction, and through reflection.
Which measurements involve directions?
Vector measurements involve a direction. For example, 28km/h, E. The measurement of 28km/h is present, plus the direction, east. Displacement, velocity, force, and acceleration are examples of vector quantities.
Do measurements used in data collection involve the use of mathematics?
measurements used in data collection involve the use of mathematics
What are the two types of measurements?
Vectors and Scolars Vectors: have an magnitude and a direction Scolars: have an magnitude but have no direction
Does acceleration involve a direction?
Yes it is a vector quantity.
Is the direction of velocity is same as direction of acceleration?
obviouslly not. there are many cases where the velocity is present but not acceleration and vce versa. it is also applicable for the direction of the measurements.
Why is scientific data often expressed in mathematical forms?
Measurements Often Involve Numbers Or Numerical Expressions(:
How the northeast and the southeast are alike?
They both involve the cardinal direction "east"
The two basic wind measurements are direction and speed?
I'll go along with that.
Is the direction of acceleration is same as that of velocity?
obviouslly not. there are many cases where the velocity is present but not acceleration and vce versa. it is also applicable for the direction of the measurements.
What word indicates the difference between vector and scalar measurements?
Direction. A scalar has only magnitude, while a vector has both magnitude and direction.
Is speed a scalar or vector?
Speed is scalar because it does not involve a direction.
Why are vectors RQ and QR not equivalent?
Vectors involve a direction component. So while the magnitudes may be the same, the direction won't be.
