What type of quantity is the distance traveled by a car traveling 100 kilometers to the north?
- A Scalar
- B Vector
- C Neither
- D Both
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The distance traveled by the car, 100 kilometers to the north, is classified as a vector quantity. Vector quantities have both magnitude (amount) and direction. In this case:Magnitude: 100 kilometers (the distance traveled)Direction: NorthTherefore, because the travel distance includes a specific direction (north), it falls under the category of vector quantities. Scalars, in contrast, have magnitude only (e.g., speed, time). Hence, the correct answer is Vector.
