What else can I help you with?
A physical quantity that has both magnitude and directions is?
Such a physical quantity is a vector.
What do you mean by vectare Quantity give example?
A vector quantity refers to a physical quantity that has both magnitude and direction. Some examples of vector quantities include velocity (speed and direction), force (magnitude and direction), and displacement (distance and direction).
What is the difference between the distance vs displacement?
Shortest distance is called displacement . displacement =average velocity / average time . It is a vector quantity both has magnitude and direction.But,distance is a scalar quantity having only magnitude.
The straight line distance and direction between two points are together called?
Distance is the scalar quantity which does not have any direction but the displacement is the both the distance and direction. Hence displacement is the vector quantity. So the answer for the above question is DISPLACEMENT
What physical quantity use both magnitude and direction?
Any vector quantity does. Examples of vector quantities include but are not limited to . . . - Displacement - Velocity - Acceleration - Torque - Force - Electric field - Momentum - Poynting vector
A physical quantity described by both magnitude and direction is called what?
A physical quantity described by both magnitude and direction is called a vector. Vectors are commonly represented by an arrow pointing in a specific direction, with the length of the arrow representing the magnitude of the quantity.
A physical quantity that has both magnitude and directions is?
Such a physical quantity is a vector.
What is displacement in physical?
Displacement is a vector quantity. This means it has both size AND direction. Therefore, displacement is defined as distance in a given direction. Rather then simply 'distance'. Distance itself is a scalar quantity... and only has size. No direction. 20m - Distance. 20m upwards - Displacement.
How does a vector quantity differ from a scalar quantity?
A scalar quantity defines only magnitude, while a vector quantity defines both a magnitude and direction.
What is a Vector quantity describing the change in position over a specified time?
A velocity vector is a quantity that describes the change in position of an object over a specified time, including both the magnitude (speed) and direction of the motion.
Is acceleration a physical quantity?
Yes, acceleration is a physical quantity that measures the rate of change of an object's velocity with respect to time. It is a vector quantity that includes both magnitude and direction.
Is displacement sclar or vector quantity?
Displacement is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude (distance) and direction.
How are displacement and distance similar?
Distance and displacement are similar because both have magnitude.However, displacement is a vector quantity since it has both magnitude and direction whereas distance is a scalar quantity since it has only magnitude.
Is the position scalar or vector quantity?
Position is a vector quantity as it has both magnitude (distance) and direction in space.
What is a quantity that is specified by size and direction?
. Velocity Acceleration
What is speed in specified direction called?
Speed in a specified direction is referred to as velocity. Velocity is a vector quantity that includes information about both the speed and direction of an object's motion.
Can a body have positive distance but negative speed?
First of all you must be familiar with scalar and vector quantities. A scalar quantity is a physical quantity having only magnitude example length. A vector quantity is a physical quantity having both magnitude and directions. Now speed and distance are both scalar quantities which means their values are always positive. But if you considered velocity then there can be a negative value. Velocity is measured w.r.t the direction the object is going. Conventionally the direction is negative if the object is moving to the left of the initial point and positive for the other way.
