Q: Which of the given below is NOT a vector quantity?
  • A. Power
  • B. Torque
  • C. Displacement
  • D. Acceleration
Correct Answer: Option A - The physical quantities which require magnitude as well as direction to be fully represented are called vector quantities. Example- Momentum, impulse, acceleration, force, displacement, velocity, electric field, torque etc. Whereas energy, distance, time, power etc, are scalar quantities.
