That's a 'vector'. Examples include displacement, velocity, acceleration, force,
momentum, torque, gradient, divergence, and curl.
Distance, speed, temperature, price, weight, energy, power, voltage, resistance,
and duration are not vectors.
Vector quantities are those that must be described with both a magnitude and direction. Scalar quantities can be described with only a single value.
Scalars are quantities that are fully described by magnitude aloneVectors are quantities that are fully described by both magnitude and a direction.Duration of a flight is simply a magnitude and there is no direction so it is a scalar.
yes we can have. for eg electric current, pressure etc though these quantities have both magnitude and direction their directions are not necessary to define them and vectors are those quantities which has magnitude and requires direction to be defined " quantities having both magnitude and direction is a vector" is not a corrrect definition ofa vector
A vector quality is defined as a quality that is described completely by both a direction and a magnitude. Velocity describes what direction something is moving as well as the speed it is moving, which makes it a vector quality.
scalar quantity has only magnitude whereas vector quantity has magnitude as well as direction
Vector quantity
there are three types of quantities:-1.Scalar quantities - Scalarsare quantities that are fully described by a magnitude (or numerical value) alone.2.vector quantities - Vectorsare quantities that are fully described by both a magnitude and a direction.3.Tensor quantities - tensors are quantities that are fully described by magnitude, direction and the plane thecomponent acts on.
Vector quantities are those that must be described with both a magnitude and direction. Scalar quantities can be described with only a single value.
Scaler Quantity- quantities which are described only by magnitude.Vector Quantity- quantities which are described by both magnitude as well as direction.
Scalar quantities are physical quantities that can be described with a single value. They are unlike vector quantities which require both magnitude and direction.
those quantities in which we are need are both magnitude and direction for complete described is called a Victor
Scalar quantities are described by a number alone, while vector quantities require a number and a direction, and as area cannot have an associated direction, must be scalar.
Scalars are quantities that are fully described by magnitude aloneVectors are quantities that are fully described by both magnitude and a direction.Duration of a flight is simply a magnitude and there is no direction so it is a scalar.
Scalar quantities are defined as quantities that have only a mganitude. Vector quantities have magnitude and direction. Some example of this include Scalar Vector Mass Weight length Displacement Speed Velocity Energy Acceleration
the quantities which have both magnitude and direction are called vector quantities
distance over time= speed displacement over time = velocity Difference between the two- distance and speed are scalar quantities (described by magnitude only) while displacement adn velocity are vector quantities (described by both magnitude and direction).
Physical quantities that need both magnitude and direction for its complete description are known as vector quantities. Physical quantities that need only direction for its complete description are known as scalar quantities.
