Increasing the mass decreases the acceleration.
Newton's Second Law: F = ma (Force = mass x acceleration) --> a = F/m, meaning that the relationship between the acceleration and the mass is inversely proportional.
Mass is a scalar quantity because it doesn't have direction.
Acceleration is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.
A scalar is a magnitude that doesn't specify a direction. A vector is a magnitude where the direction is important and is specified.
A Scalar value is considered to only need a magnitude. A magnitude is just a value. Speed is considered a scalar quantity since it does not tell you anything about direction, just that's it's going 60 mph. A vector quantity is made up of both a magnitude and a direction. An example is velocity. Velocity you state how fast you are going, and the direction in which you are going in.
scalar
it is scalar
scalar
acceleration is never a scalar...it describes in what direction is the motion of an object changing, so it can't be a scalar...
Since acceleration has both a magnitude and a direction, it is therefore a vector quantity, not a scalar quantity.

No, acceleration is a vector quantity.
Angular acceleration is a vector.
A vector. Acceleration is defined as change in velocity in a given time, in symbolsa = ( v - u ) / t(the bolded symbols represent vectors)t is a scalar so its inverse is also a scalar.( v - u ) is a vector soa = vector * scalar = a vector.Answer2:Acceleration like many quantities is a Quaternion, consisting of a scalar part and a vector part. a= mv2/r is a scalar acceleration and A=dV/dt is a vector acceleration as is cV/r = A.
Acceleration means the rate of change of velocity, that is it does not show the particular(specific) direction so it is a scalar quantity.
No. Force and acceleration are vector quantities.
Vector Quantity
A scalar is a magnitude that doesn't specify a direction. A vector is a magnitude where the direction is important and is specified.
b. distance is a scalar quantity.
Scalar acceleration.
