Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following quantities is a scalar?
  • Step 1: Understand what a scalar quantity is. A scalar has only magnitude (size) and no direction.
  • Step 2: Identify the quantities given in the question: temperature, velocity, force, and acceleration.
  • Step 3: Determine the nature of each quantity: Temperature is a scalar (only magnitude), while velocity, force, and acceleration are vectors (they have both magnitude and direction).
  • Step 4: Conclude that temperature is the only scalar quantity among the options provided.
