Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To classify the quantities as scalars or vectors, we need to understand the definitions of each: 1. **Scalars**: Quantities that have only magnitude (size) and no direction. 2. **Vectors**: Quantities that have both magnitude and direction. Now, let's analyze each quantity provided in the question: ### Step 1: Analyze Velocity ...
