it's a rather puzzling idea, but area can be either a scalar or vector quantity. Usually area is a scalar quantity. E.g. the area of my house is 2000 square feet. In more advanced calculus courses you'll run into area vectors. area is a vector because as u know pressure=force/area which is scalar"pressure"=vector"force" / X"area" area"X"= force/pressure which is vector/scalar =vector so area is a vector
In geometry, for a finite planar surface of scalar area S, the vector area : is defined as a vector whose magnitude is S and whose direction is perpendicular to the plane, as determined by the right hand rule on the rim (moving one's right hand counterclockwise around the rim, when the palm of the hand is "touching" the surface, and the straight thumb indicate the direction). :
No, adding a direction to a scalar quantity does not make it a vector quantity. A vector quantity must have both magnitude and direction inherently associated with it, while a scalar quantity only has magnitude. Simply adding a direction to a scalar quantity does not change its fundamental nature.
Pressure is a scalar quantity. It is defined as the force per unit area and only has magnitude, not direction.
True. A vector quantity has both magnitude and direction, while a scalar quantity only has magnitude.
temperature is a scalar quantity................
because i answered in my paper.
area is scalar.because we will not say that your area in this direction and my area in this direction . so,area has only magnitude Answer2: the product of two displacements produce a vector area, AxB this is a vector area. BxA is an opposite area.
length is a scalar quantity buddy . but displacement is vector quantity. Length is a vector quantity If it is associated with direction.. Because having direction make it vector... S0 being vector or scalar depends upon how and where it is used..
vector quantity is magnitute and direction scalar is magnitute only
A vector quantity.
No, a scalar quantity cannot be added to a vector quantity directly. They belong to different types of quantities - scalars have only magnitude while vectors have both magnitude and direction. To add a scalar to a vector, you would need to convert the scalar to a vector by giving it a direction and then perform vector addition.
Work is a scalar quantity.
A vector
