Question 83Gas Turbine - Assistant Engineer
70% to passWhich of the following statements correctly describes force?
AForce is not a vector quantity.
BForce is a scalar quantity.
CForce is work in a unit of time.
DForce has magnitude and direction.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) Force has magnitude and direction. Force is a vector quantity, which means it has both magnitude (size or amount) and direction. This is a fundamental property of force that is recognized in the laws of physics. Force is not a scalar quantity (B), which would only have magnitude without direction. Force is also not the same as work divided by time (C), which would be a measure of power rather than force itself. Finally, force does have direction (D), in contrast to the statement in option A.
