SCALAR AND VECTOR QUANTITIES

· Concept of scalar and vector quantities
· Vector representation, addition of scalars and vector.
· Resolution of vectors and resultant

By the end of this lesson, the Students should be able to:
• Discuss the significance of units in physical measurements
• Determine the dimension of at least 5 physical quantities
• List at least five scalar and vector quantities
• Define scalars and vectors
• Illustrate vectors analytically and diagrammatically
• Solve simple calculations involving vectors and scalars
• Resolve vectors into components analytically and diagrammatically.
