It is not possible the addition of scalars as well as vectors because vector quantities are magnitude as well as direction and scalar quantities are the only magnitude; they have no directions at all. Addition is possible between scalar to scalar and vector to vector.
Under some circumstances, you may be able to treat scalar quantities as being along some previously undefined dimension of a vector quantity, and add them that way. For example, you can treat time as a vector along the t-axis and add it to an xyz position vector in 3-space to come up with a four-dimensional spacetime vector.
A scalar times a vector is a vector.
Scalar
Time is scalar
no,zero cannot be added to a null vector because zero is scalar but null vector is a vector,although null vector has zero magnitude but it has direction due to which it is called a vector.
No Answer2: Yes. Scalar S and vector V . S/V= SV*/VV* = SV*/Norm of vector(VV*). Example: a/bi = a(-bi)/bi(-bi)= -abi/b2 =-ai/b.
Yes, you can add a scalar to a vector by adding the scalar value to each component of the vector.
It is not impossible to add a scalar to a vector. e.g. e^ix = cos(x) + isin(x) when x is 0 the answer is a scalar, when x=90 degrees the answer is a vector, when x is not a multiple of 90 degrees the answer is the sum of a scalar and a vector. So it is only impossible to add a scalar to a vector when x is a multiple of 90 degrees, all other angles add a scalar to a vector.
No.
To add a scalar to a vector, you simply multiply each component of the vector by the scalar and then add the results together to get a new vector. For example, if you have a vector v = [1, 2, 3] and you want to add a scalar 5 to it, you would calculate 5*v = [5, 10, 15].
no!!!only scalars and scalars and only vectors and vectors can be added.
scalar cannot be added to a vector quantity
A scalar times a vector is a vector.
vector
A scalar quantity added to a vector quantity is a complex quantity. An example is a complex number z = a + ib, a is the scalar and ib is the vector quantity.If the vector quantity is 3 dimensional, ib + jc + kd, then the scalar and vector forms a quaternion quantity.
The product of scalar and vector quantity is scalar.
You can add a vector quantity to a scalar quantity. A complex number is just such an addition, z= a + bi. the first term 'a' is a scalar and the second term 'bi' is a vector quantity. The complex quantity z is the sum of a scalar and a vector. z is a different quantity than 'a' or 'bi', it contains both a scalar and a vector z=(a,bi). The Universe is made up of such additions called Quaternions: Q= a + bi + cj + kd , 'a' is a scalar and i, j and k are vectors making bi + cj +dk a three dimensional vector. Quaternions are four dimensional, one scalar dimension and three vector dimensions. Complex Numbers, z, a 2 dimensional number, are a subset of Quaternions.
A vector has direction, where as a scalar does not. When you add two vectors, it is like you are moving one vector to the end of the other vector, and closing off the triangle with a vector for the third side. That third vector is the addition of the first two vectors. The new vector points in a specific direction, so it cannot be a scalar.
