The gravitational force fields are both scalar and vector. The forces are the first derivative of the energy.

The derivative is a Quaternion derivative X=[d/dr,Del].


The total energy is W = -mGM/r + cP and there are five forces,

F = XW= [d/dr,Del][-mGM/r, cP] = [vp/r -cDel.P, cdP/dr - Del mGM/r + cDelxP]


The scalar forces are :

vp/r centripetal scalar force

-cDel.P= -cp/r cos(PR) centrifugal scalar force


the vector forces are:

cdP/dr = -cp/r R/r tangent force

Del -mGM/r = vp/r R/r gradient force

cDelxP = RxP cp/r sin(PR) Curl force.

Is gravitational field a vector quantity?

Yes, the gravitational field is a vector quantity. It has both magnitude (strength) and direction, which are important in determining the effect of gravity on objects within the field.


What are the vector and scalar fields?

In mathematics, a field is a set with certain operators (such as addition and multiplication) defined on it and where the members of the set have certain properties. In a vector field, each member of this set has a value AND a direction associated with it. In a scalar field, there is only vaue but no direction.


Is magnetic field strength a vector quantity?

When one refers to the strength of a magnetic field, they're usually referring to the scalar magnitude of the magnetic field vector, so no.
