Define the term speed- what are its various units- is it a scalar or vector quantity-

Question

Toppr Admin · Accepted Answer

Two scalar quantities can also be multiplied or divided by each other to form a derived scalar quantity- For example- if a train covers a distance of 100 km in 1-0 h- its speed is 100-0 km-1-0 h - 27-8 m-s- where the speed is a derived scalar quantity obtained by dividing distance by time-

Define the term speed. what are its various units? is it a scalar or vector quantity?

Two scalar quantities can also be multiplied or divided by each other to form a derived scalar quantity. For example, if a train covers a distance of 100 km in 1.0 h, its speed is 100.0 km/1.0 h = 27.8 m/s, where the speed is a derived scalar quantity obtained by dividing distance by time.
