A force is a vector that has both ______ and direction.

Answered by admin @ 28/10/2021

A force is a vector that has both magnitude and direction.

Explanation:

A force is defined as the amount of pull or push experienced by a body. The force acting on a body can bring about the change in the state of rest or motion of a body.

The physical quantities are broadly divided into two categories.

Scalar Quantities
Vector Quantities

The scalar quantities are the quantities that have only magnitude and do not require any direction for their representation whereas the vector quantities on the other hand are the quantities that require the magnitude as well as the direction for their representation.

The speed of a body is considered to be a scalar quantity whereas the velocity of the body considered as the vector because the velocity requires the direction along with the magnitude.

Similarly, the distance of a body is the length of a path covered by the body from the initial point. So, it is scalar but the displacement is the shortest distance between the initial and final point. SO, it is termed as vector as it has direction.

Similarly, the force acting on a body requires the magnitude as well the direction for the complete expression of the force.

Thus, A force is a vector that has both magnitude and direction.
