Relative velocity and resolving vectors into horizontal and vertical components are also discussed.
This document discusses the different levels of measurement in data: nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio.
Nominal measurement assigns numbers or labels to categories but the numbers have no inherent order or magnitude. Ordinal measurement assigns numbers to rank categories in order but the differences between numbers are unknown. Interval measurement has equal distances between numbers like a Celsius thermometer. Ratio measurement has all the properties of interval plus a true zero point where the absence of a value can be measured.

Vectors and scalars for IB 11th gradersMESUT MIZRAK
This document discusses vectors and scalars in physics. It defines vectors as quantities that have both magnitude and direction, while scalars only have magnitude. Examples of each are provided. The document then discusses how to calculate the sum or difference of vectors graphically by adding or subtracting their magnitudes and directions. It also covers resolving vectors into perpendicular components, multiplying vectors by scalars, and finding the angle between adjacent vectors graphically or using trigonometry. Diagrams are provided to illustrate these vector concepts and calculations.
This document defines scalar and vector quantities and provides examples of each. Scalars have only magnitude, while vectors have both magnitude and direction. Examples of scalars include mass, time, energy and distance, while vectors include displacement, velocity, acceleration and force. Vectors are represented by arrows with length indicating magnitude and direction. Properties of vectors are that they are equal if they have the same magnitude and direction, negatives have the opposite direction, and addition requires considering both magnitude and direction. The resultant vector results from adding vectors, while the equilibrant is opposite the resultant.
The document provides information about an introductory physics module including the topics, instructors, and meeting times. It then summarizes various core concepts in physics measurements and quantities including: physical quantities and their magnitude and units; base and derived quantities and units; supplementary quantities of plane angle and solid angle; and significant figures in measurements. Dimensional analysis and the benefits of checking for dimensional homogeneity in equations is also outlined. Vectors, scalar and vector products, and torque are defined.
Mechanics is the branch of physics that deals with the study of motion and forces on objects, and it is classified into statics, dynamics, and kinematics; statics concerns equilibrium, dynamics concerns forces on moving objects, and kinematics concerns motion without forces. Mechanics studies the motion of macroscopic bodies using concepts like position, displacement, distance, vectors, and methods for adding vectors like the component method using trigonometry or the graphical head-to-tail method.
Vectors can be understood algebraically or geometrically. Algebraically, a vector is a set of scalar values treated as a single entity with defined operations. Geometrically, a vector represents a quantity with both magnitude and direction, and can be drawn as an arrow. Vectors have two key operations - vector addition involves placing the start of one vector at the end of another, and scalar multiplication scales the length of a vector without changing its direction. Vectors are useful for representing physical quantities in programming, such as position, velocity, and acceleration.
Vectors and scalars for Year 10 thank you for readingpraisechi81
This document provides an introduction to scalars and vectors for a Year 10 physics class. It begins with objectives for the lesson, which are to explain and distinguish between scalar and vector quantities, compose vectors, resolve vectors into directions, and solve analytical problems involving forces. Key concepts introduced include the difference between scalars and vectors, vector representations using arrows, and methods for adding and resolving vectors like the parallelogram rule. Examples are provided for representing vectors, adding vectors, resolving vectors into components, and solving problems involving coplanar forces.
This document discusses fundamental physics concepts including:
- Forces and equilibrium, including examples of objects at rest and in motion being in equilibrium
- Distinguishing between types of forces like weight, tension, friction, and support forces
- Calculating net force and using the concept of vectors and vector addition to determine resultant forces for both parallel and non-parallel forces. Examples are given of applying these concepts to situations involving ropes, springs, and other objects.
Vectors have both magnitude and direction, while scalars only have magnitude. Common vectors include displacement, velocity, and force. Vectors can be added and subtracted graphically by placing the tail of one vector at the head of another, with the resultant vector running from the tail of the first to the head of the last. Multiplying or dividing a vector by a scalar does not change its direction.
Vectors have both magnitude and direction, while scalars only have magnitude. There are two main methods for adding vectors graphically: the head-to-tail method and the parallelogram method. Vectors can also be represented and added using their horizontal and vertical components. The dot product of two vectors yields a scalar that indicates the cosine of the angle between the vectors, while the vector product yields a vector that is perpendicular to both original vectors and whose magnitude depends on the angle between them.
Vectors have both magnitude and direction, while scalars only have magnitude. A vector quantity includes both the size of something and the direction it is pointing, like force or velocity. A scalar quantity only includes the size, like mass or temperature. Distance is scalar as it only has size, but displacement is a vector as it includes both how far something moved and the direction of movement. Vectors can be represented graphically with an arrow, with the length representing magnitude and direction of the arrow representing direction. Vectors can also be added and subtracted to calculate a resultant vector.

The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
Communicating effectively and consistently with students can help them feel at ease during their learning experience and provide the instructor with a communication trail to track the course's progress. This workshop will take you through constructing an engaging course container to facilitate effective communication.

2. Lesson Objectives.
Define a vector and a scalar quantity.
Differentiate between vector and scalar quantities.
Understand that ⟶F represents the force factor, whereas F represents the
magnitude of the force factor.
Graphical representation of vector quantities.
Properties of vectors like equality of vectors, negative vectors, addition and
subtraction of vectors using the force vector as an example.
Define resultant vector.
Find resultant vector graphically using the tail-to- head method as well as by
calculation for a maximum of four force vectors in one dimension.
3. Introduction
List any physical quantities that you know.
Time,
Mass,
Weight,
Force,
Charge
Let’s play a game called pick a paper
4. SCALAR
Scalars are physical quantities which have only a number value or a size
(magnitude). A scalar tells you how much of something there is.
Definition
A scalar is a physical quantity that has only a magnitude (size).
For example, a person buys a tub of margarine which is labelled with a mass of 500
g. The mass of the tub of margarine is a scalar quantity. It only needs one number
to describe it, in this case, 500 g.
5. VECTOR
Vectors are different because they are physical quantities which have a size
and a direction. A vector tells you how much of something there is and which
direction it is in.
A vector is a physical quantity that has both a magnitude and a direction.
For example, a car is travelling east along a freeway at 100 km · h −1 . What
we have here is a vector called the velocity. The car is moving at 100 km · h
−1 (this is the magnitude) and we know where it is going – east (this is the
direction). These two quantities, the speed and direction of the car, (a
magnitude and a direction) together form a vector we call velocity
6. More examples
Examples of scalar quantities:
Mass has only a value, no direction
Electric charge has only a value, no direction
Examples of vector quantities:
Force has a value and a direction. You push or pull something with some
strength (magnitude) in a particular direction
Weight has a value and a direction. Your weight is proportional to your mass
(magnitude) and is always in the direction towards the centre of the earth.
7. Exercise 1 [7 marks]
Classify the following as vectors or scalars
1. Length
2. Force
3. Direction
4. Height
5. Time
6. Speed
7. Temperature
9. Vector notation
Vectors are different to scalars and must have their own notation.
There are many ways of writing the symbol for a vector.
We will be showing vectors by symbols with an arrow pointing to the right
above it.
For example, → F, → W and → v represent the vectors of force, weight and
velocity, meaning they have both a magnitude and a direction.
Sometimes just the magnitude of a vector is needed. In this case, the arrow is
omitted. For the case of the force vector:
→ F represents the force vector
F represents the magnitude of the force vector
10. Graphical representation of vectors
Vectors are drawn as arrows. An arrow has both a magnitude (how long it is)
and a direction (the direction in which it points).
The starting point of a vector is known as the tail and the end point is known
as the head.
Simulations: Show vectors by drawing them.
11. Properties of vectors
If two vectors have the same magnitude (size) and the same direction, then
we call them equal to each other.
For example, if we have two forces, → F1= 20 N in the upward direction and →
F2= 20 N in the upward direction, then we can say that → F1= → F2.
Defining Equal vectors
Two vectors are equal if they have the same magnitude and the same direction.
12. Properties cont…
Scalars can have positive or negative values, e.g. -5 or 5
Vectors can also be positive or negative.
A negative vector is a vector which points in the direction opposite to the reference positive
direction.
For example, if in a particular situation, we define the upward direction as the reference positive
direction,
then a force → F1= 30 N downwards would be a negative vector and could also be written as → F1= −30 N.
In this case, the negative (-) sign indicates that the direction of → F1 is opposite to that of the reference
positive direction.
A negative vector is a vector that has the opposite direction to the reference positive direction.
13. Addition and subtraction of vectors
Adding vectors
When vectors are added, take into account both their magnitudes and
directions.
For example, You and a friend are trying to move a heavy box. You stand behind it
and push forwards with a force → F1 and your friend stands in front and pulls it
towards them with a force → F2.
The two forces are in the same direction (i.e. forwards) and so the total force
acting on the box is:
[Draw the box and show the vectors, and then add them]
14. Adding and subtracting vectors cont…
Subtracting vectors
Lets use the same example as above. You and your friend are trying to move.
You stand behind the box and pull it towards you with a force → F1 and your friend
stands at the front of the box and pulls it towards them with a force → F2.
In this case the two forces are in opposite directions.
If we define the direction your friend is pulling in as positive then the force you
are exerting must be negative since it is in the opposite direction.
We can write the total force exerted on the box as the sum of the individual
forces: [Draw to illustrate].
15. The resultant vector
The final quantity you get when adding or subtracting vectors is called the
resultant vector.
The resultant vector is the single vector whose effect is the same as the
individual vectors acting together.
Lets use the box example:
In the first case, you and your friend are applying forces in the same direction. The
resultant force will be the sum of your two applied forces in that direction.
In the second case, the forces are applied in opposite directions. The resultant
vector will again be the sum of your two applied forces, however after choosing a
positive direction, one force will be positive and the other will be negative and the
sign of the resultant force will just depend on which direction you chose as
positive. [draw to illustrate]
16. Summary
A scalar is a physical quantity with magnitude only.
A vector is a physical quantity with magnitude and direction.
Vectors may be represented as arrows where the length of the arrow indicates the
magnitude and the arrowhead indicates the direction of the vector.
Two vectors are equal if they have the same magnitude and the same direction.
A negative vector is a vector that has the opposite direction to the reference positive
direction.
Addition and subtraction of vectors.
The resultant vector is the single vector whose effect is the same as the individual
vectors acting together.

17. Assessment.
Homework: inquiry-based activity.
At home, identify quantified objects (at least 10). Then categorize them as
either scalar or vector.
Hint: with the vector quantities, consider the distances that you normally
walk either to school or shops.
