Vector and Scalar Measurement

The exercise in this worksheet are complementary to this NinetyEast tutorial (https://www.ninetyeast.net/maths/grade-9-10-gcse-hsc/vectors-and-scalars/what-are-vectors) . Please refer to it for a breakdown of what scalar and vector measurements are.

Exercise 1Match the correct pieces on the right side to the left hand side:

Scalar A measurement

Speed

Vector Describes magnitude only

Displacement

Distance

Describes magnitude and direction

Temperature

Weight

Mass

Velocity

Exercise 2a. You can say that a person is running 2.5 meters every second to the left. Is this a vector or scalar measurement? Why?

_____________________________________________________________________________________

b. What shorthand can you use to express this measurement?

Answers

Exercise 1

Scalar A measurement

Speed

Vector Describes magnitude only

Displacement

Distance

Describes magnitude and direction

Temperature

Weight

Mass

Velocity

Exercise 2a. This is a vector measurement, because it includes both a magnitude (2.5 m/s) and direction (to the left).

b. shorthand:

Exercise 3.a. speed: 50 km/hr

b. velocity: 50 km/hr to the north
