Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To classify each of the given physical quantities as either a scalar or a vector, we will analyze each quantity based on its definition: 1. **Volume**: - **Classification**: Scalar - **Reason**: Volume has only magnitude (e.g., 5 liters) and does not have a direction. 2. **Mass**: - **Classification**: Scalar ...
