Physics-Scalar & Vector Products
NEET Physics Scalar & Vector Products Match the Following Question
Type: Match the Following-match the column-Medium-Class 11
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Scalar quantity | (i) Displacement |
| (b) Vector quantity | (ii) Temperature |
| (c) Vector multiplied by negative number | (iii) Direction opposite to original |
| (d) Vector multiplied by positive number | (iv) Same direction as original |
A
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
B
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
C
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
D
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
Correct Answer
Option C
Detailed Explanation
Scalar quantities have magnitude only, such as temperature, while vector quantities have both magnitude and direction, such as displacement. The direction of a vector multiplied by a negative number reverses, while multiplying by a positive number keeps the direction the same, as described in the NCERT context.
