What is the result if you subtract a velocity vector to another velocity vector?
The result will also be a velocity vector. Draw the first vector. From its tip draw the negative of the second vector ( ie a vector with the same magnitude but opposite direction). The the resultant would be the vector with the same starting point as the first vector and the same endpoint as the second. If the two vectors are equal but opposite, you end up with the null velocity vector.
How is velocity diffrent from speed?
Velocity is a vector, and so it has two components -- magnitude (speed) and direction. Speed is a scalar, and it is the magnitude of velocity, a vector.
How does vector calculus apply in fluid mechanics?
The velocity at each point in the fluid is a vector. If the fluid is compressible, the divergence of the velocity vector is nonzero in general. In a vortex the curl is nonzero.
What does the velocity include that the speed does not?
Direction. Velocity is a vector, speed is a scalar.
Is 55 miles per hour a vector?
No. It is a speed (a scalar) but not a velocity (a vector).
When we subtract a velocity vector from another velocity vector the result is?
Still another velocity vector (or a zero vector).
What is a size of a velocity vector?
The size of the velocity vector is the speed.
Which is vector speed or velocity?
"Speed" is a scalar; "velocity" is a vector.
Is moment a vector or a scalar?
A vector. Since velocity is a vector, moment, which is mass x velocity, is also a vector.
Which is a vector quantity speed or velocity?
velocity is a vector and speed is a scalar.
Is a vector quantity speed or velocity?
velocity is a vector and speed is a scalar.
Why angular velocity is vector quantity?
Because it's a type of velocity and velocity is vector quantity
Is angular velocity a vector quantity?
Yes, angular velocity is a vector quantity
How would momentum be considered a vector?
momentum is mass x velocity and velocity is a vector and mass is scalar but scalar times vector = vector so momentum remains a vector
What is an angular velocity scalar or vector?
vector
What is velocity and why is it a vector?
Velocity is an indication of a speed, including a direction. It is a vector because that is how a vector is defined (a magnitude, including a direction).
Is momentum downwards?
Momentum is a vector, the product of a scalar (mass) & a vector (velocity). As such, its direction is whatever direction the velocity vector has.
