Scalar Quantities zpqngdm pg 1 - EASY

They possess only magnitude, lacking directional components.

Adding the individual masses together gives the total mass.

The increase in temperature is the final temperature minus the initial temperature. (21°C - 12°C)

Scalar quantities are added by summing their numerical values.

Scalar quantities can be combined or reduced through addition or subtraction.

Vectors possess both magnitude and a specific direction, and scalar quantities do not have a specific direction.

The length of the arrow represents the magnitude of the vector.

Unlike vectors, scalars are manipulated arithmetically without considering direction.

When direction is crucial, such as velocity, use vector quantities.

The length of the arrows reflects the magnitude of the vectors.

Adding together the individual magnitudes of the forces.

The resultant force is the difference between the forces, in the direction of the larger force.

A free body diagram is perfect for showing all forces on an object

Subtract the smaller force from the larger force; the direction is that of the larger force.

Vectors are represented using vector diagrams.
