Which one of the following is CORRECT example of vector quantity?

Which one of the following is CORRECT example of vector quantity? Correct Answer Displacement and velocity

Concept:

  • All measurable quantities are divided into two broad categories:

Scalar quantities

Vector quantities

The physical quantities which have only magnitude and no direction are called scalar quantities or scalars.

The physical quantities which have both magnitude and direction and obey the laws of vector addition are called vector quantities or vectors.

A scalar quantity can be specified by a single number, along with the proper unit.

A vector quantity is specified by a number with a unit and its direction.

Examples: Mass, volume, density, time, temperature, electric current, distance, Energy, speed, etc.

Examples: Displacement, velocity, force, weight, torque, momentum, acceleration, velocity, etc

A container contains certain quantity of milk. Malik sold 20% of the milk from the container and added same quantity of water to it. From this mixture, 40% of the quantity was sold to local dealer. After this Malik again added water to the mixture equivalent to 18% of the quantity, he sold to the local dealer. At the end, he sold 75% of the mixture to the dairy and remaining unsold quantity was 5 liter. What was the initial quantity of milk in the container (approx.)?

Consider the following three statements about link state and distance vector routing protocols, for a large network with 500 network nodes and 4000 links. [S1] The computational overhead in link state protocols is higher than in distance vector protocols. [S2] A distance vector protocol (with split horizon) avoids persistent routing loops, but not a link state protocol. [S3] After a topology change, a link state protocol will converge faster than a distance vector protocol. Which one of the following is correct about S1, S2, and S3?
