which of the following is a vector quantity?

  • D) The weight of an elephant

Weight is the only quantity that is vector among the others. Power, density, volume all are scalar quantities.

  • Power:- It is a scalar quantity. It doesn't need a direction to specify it.
  • The reason for others to be a scalar quantity is also same!

Weight is a scalar quantity because it has a direction. Weight is the force applied by earth on an object. Now, the force must have a direction so it is a vector quantity!!~
