Increasing the mass decreases the acceleration.
Newton's Second Law: F = ma (Force = mass x acceleration) --> a = F/m, meaning that the relationship between the acceleration and the mass is inversely proportional.
Mass is a scalar quantity because it doesn't have direction.
Acceleration is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.
A scalar is a magnitude that doesn't specify a direction. A vector is a magnitude where the direction is important and is specified.
scalar
Length is a scalar quantity. By definition, a vector quantity has both magnitude (ie. length) and direction. Length does not have direction, so it is not a vector. Length is a scalar quantity. Length is a scalar quantity. yes
The potential gradient is a vector quantity. It represents the rate of change of the scalar electric potential with respect to position in space.
1). one hour's progress during a motor trip 2). velocity of the car 3). acceleration of the car when the brakes are applied 4). gravitational force on a ball hanging from a string 5). force pulling a rolling ball down a ramp 6). lift on an airplane wing 7). drag on an airplane wing 8). torque on a wing-nut while tightening it 9). power radiated from Channel-2's TV transmitter 10). tension in bridge-support cables
Mass is a scalar quantity, as it only requires a magnitude to describe it. Acceleration is a vector quantity, as it involves both magnitude and direction to fully describe it.
acceleration is never a scalar...it describes in what direction is the motion of an object changing, so it can't be a scalar...
No, acceleration is not a scalar quantity. It is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.
Since acceleration has both a magnitude and a direction, it is therefore a vector quantity, not a scalar quantity.
Since acceleration has both a magnitude and a direction, it is therefore a vector quantity, not a scalar quantity.
No, acceleration is a vector quantity.
Acceleration means the rate of change of velocity, that is it does not show the particular(specific) direction so it is a scalar quantity.
No. Force and acceleration are vector quantities.
A vector. Acceleration is defined as change in velocity in a given time, in symbolsa = ( v - u ) / t(the bolded symbols represent vectors)t is a scalar so its inverse is also a scalar.( v - u ) is a vector soa = vector * scalar = a vector.Answer2:Acceleration like many quantities is a Quaternion, consisting of a scalar part and a vector part. a= mv2/r is a scalar acceleration and A=dV/dt is a vector acceleration as is cV/r = A.
A scalar is a magnitude that doesn't specify a direction. A vector is a magnitude where the direction is important and is specified.
