1 VECTORS and SCALARS Give me some DIRECTION!!!

2 PHYSICS QUANTITIES All quantities in Physics have a MAGNITUDE.

3 PHYSICS QUANTITIES All quantities in Physics have a MAGNITUDE. The MAGNITUDE is the “size” or “amount” of the quantity.

4 PHYSICS QUANTITIES All quantities in Physics have a MAGNITUDE. The MAGNITUDE is the “size” or “amount” of the quantity. It answers the question “HOW MUCH?”

5 PHYSICS QUANTITIES All quantities in Physics have a MAGNITUDE. The MAGNITUDE is the “size” or “amount” of the quantity. It answers the question “HOW MUCH?” However, physical quantities differ in one thing.

6 PHYSICS QUANTITIES In Physics, quantities belong to two major categories: Those that need direction

7 PHYSICS QUANTITIES In Physics, quantities belong to two major categories: Those that need direction and Those that don’t need direction

8 PHYSICS QUANTITIES Magnitude

9 PHYSICS QUANTITIES Magnitude Without direction Magnitude With direction

10 PHYSICS QUANTITIES Magnitude Without direction Units Magnitude With direction Units

11 PHYSICS QUANTITIES SCALARS Magnitude Without direction Units VECTORS Magnitude With direction Units

12 PHYSICS QUANTITIES SCALARS Magnitude Without direction Units VECTORS Magnitude With direction Units
