Question

Identify the vector quantity among these listed physical quantities?

A.

Energy

B.

Mass

C.

Density

D.

Gravitational Intensity

Correct option is D


The correct answer is (d) Gravitational Intensity.
· Gravitational intensity, also known as gravitational field strength, has both magnitude and direction.
· It describes the force that a unit mass would experience in a gravitational field.
· Thus, gravitational intensity is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction, unlike energy, mass, and density which are scalar quantities.
· A vector quantity has both magnitude and direction. Examples include displacement, velocity, acceleration, and gravitational intensity.
· A scalar quantity has only magnitude and no direction. Examples include mass, temperature, energy, and density.
