e. teperature

Which r scalar qunatities, which are vector, which are neither? a. velocity,b. age c. speed d.acceleration.?
Velocity, acceleration are vectors.


Age, speed, temperature are scalar.





Is this rhetorical?
Reply:VECTORS are magnitude with directions:


velocity, acceleration





SCALARS: are just plane magnitudes:


age, speed
Reply:Vector: velocity, acceleration


Scalar: speed, age, temperature





Remember: vector qualities include a direction, and scalar qualities don't.
