Is angle a scalar or vector ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine whether an angle is a scalar or a vector, we can analyze its properties and definitions. Here's a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Define Angle An angle (let's denote it as θ) is typically defined in terms of the arc length (s) and the radius (r) of a circle. The relationship is given by: \[ \theta = \frac{s}{r} \] where: - \( s \) is the arc length, - \( r \) is the radius of the circle. ...
