Q6 of 37 Page 19

Consider the quantities, pressure, power, energy, impulse, gravitational potential, electrical charge, temperature, area. Out of these, the only vector quantities are

We know that impulse is change in momentum per unit time and momentum is vector quantity; therefore impulse is also a vector quantity. The area is taken as vector quantity where calculation of flux is required. Area’s vector direction is normal to the its plane
