Is rotation scalar or vector?
Rotation is a vector having a direction and magnitude.
What is vector in math?
Simply put, a vector is 2 dimensional. Think of speed - it is only one dimensional. It is not a vector, it is a scalar. It is measured in a scale, most commonly noticed when inside a vehicle. You are travelling at 100km/h (60mph) Vectors are 2 dimensional, they have a magnitude and a direction. Think of velocity, as an arrow - imagine you are travelling at 60 mph in a northerly direction, your arrow would be pointing to the notth, with a magnitude of 60mph, If you were travelling at 60mph in a southerly direction, your velocity vector would be pointing towards the south, the exact opposite of your vector if you were travelling in a northerly direction. However the speed in these two scenario's, speed not being a vector, remains exactly the same, 60mph.
What is one fourth of a rotation going counterclockwise?
1/4 of 360 degrees = 90 degrees which is a right angle
What is the rotation of a tornado?
The rotation of a tornado is it spinning or turning. A tornado is defined as a violently rotating column of air in contact with the cloud base and the ground.
What do you call to The point of rotation in a lever?
The fulcrum
Is rotation scalar or vector?
Rotation is a vector having a direction and magnitude.
What is a positive selection vector?
positive selection vector
What is pseudo vector?
A psuedovector is a vector that transform in a proper rotation, but in three dimensions it gains an additional sign flip because of an improper rotation.
Is a torque vector quantity?
Yes. The "direction" of the vector is along the axis of rotation.Yes. The "direction" of the vector is along the axis of rotation.Yes. The "direction" of the vector is along the axis of rotation.Yes. The "direction" of the vector is along the axis of rotation.
What direction does the angular velocity vector of the Earth's rotation point toward?
The Earth's angular velocity vector due to its axial rotation points towards the north pole.
How will you multiply a vector by positive number?
A positive scalar multiplied by a vector, will only change the vector's magnitude, not the direction. A negative scalar multiplied by the vector will reverse the direction by 180°.
What is meant by negative vector?
It is a vector that has the opposite direction to the reference positive direction. (A vector is one point in space relative to another.) Negative vector is the opposite direction
Is any quantity having a positive and negative values a vector?
No, vector, besides a value, has also a direction.
A vector a is along the positive z axis and it's vector product with another vector b is zero then vector b could be?
Vector b would be along the z axis, it could have any magnitude.
What is the magnitude of an acceleration vector?
It is the positive square root of its length.
Where does the angular velocity vector of the Earth rotation points?
Up out of the north pole. (And down into the south pole.)
Which diagram shows a composition of transformations that is a rotation around point P, followed by a translation by a given vector?
