Density is an intrinsic property, while weight is an extrinsic property. The density of a material is the same, regardless of the conditions. Weight depends on gravity, so it is not a property of matter, but depends on the gravitational field.

Physical properties can be intrinsic or extrinsic. Intrinsic properties are properties that do not depend on the amount of matter present. For example, color is an intrinsic property. A scrap of blue construction paper and a whole sheet of blue construction paper are the same color.

An extrinsic property is not essential or inherent to the subject that is being characterized. For example, mass is an intrinsic property of any physical object, whereas weight is an extrinsic property that depends on the strength of the gravitational field in which the object is placed.

Viscosity is intrinsic. That means it doesn’t change when you take away some of the sample.

The intrinsic viscosity is determined by extrapolating the viscometry data to the zero polymer concentration. Units of measurement of the intrinsic viscosity are the inverse of the polymer concentration in a solution, cm3/g.

Examples of intrinsic properties include: temperature. pressure. viscosity.

The unit of viscosity, accordingly, is newton-second per square metre, which is usually expressed as pascal-second in SI units.

For instance, honey has a much higher viscosity than water. Viscosity is measured using a viscometer. Measured values span several orders of magnitude. Of all fluids, gases have the lowest viscosities, and thick liquids have the highest.

Informally, viscosity is the quantity that describes a fluid’s resistance to flow. Fluids resist the relative motion of immersed objects through them as well as to the motion of layers with differing velocities within them. The SI unit of viscosity is the pascal second [Pa s], which has no special name.

Viscosity is a scalar quantity. Displacement, force, velocity, and acceleration all have associated directions and are classified as vector quantities.

No, surface tension is a scalar quantity because surface tension =work donesurface area, where both work done and area are scalars.

area is NOT a vector. But it can be “represented” by one. If you are dealing with planar regions in three dimensions, then it can be convenient to represent the “area” as a vector whose length is the actual scalar area and whose direction is perpendicular to the plane.

Friction is a vector quantity. Vectors are quantities that are fully described by both magnitude and direction. Friction is also dependent on what type of force, in how much magnitude and in what direction, is applied to any object.

Weight is a force which is a vector and has a magnitude and direction. Mass is a scalar. Weight and mass are related to one another, but they are not the same quantity.

Friction is a force between two surfaces that are sliding, or trying to slide, across each other. Friction always works in the direction opposite to the direction in which the object is moving, or trying to move. Friction always slows a moving object down.

From a mathematical point of view, the friction coefficient is an number that show the proportionality between the friction force and the normal force. Yes it is true that the friction varies with the direction, but I think it’s not possible to represent that with an vector.

The vector giving the friction force has magnitude μkFN and is opposite the direction of travel, so it can be written as the product of μkFN with a unit vector pointing in the direction opposite the direction of travel.

A force vector is a representation of a force that has both magnitude and direction. This is opposed to simply giving the magnitude of the force, which is called a scalar quantity. A vector is typically represented by an arrow in the direction of the force and with a length proportional to the force’s magnitude.

upthrust is a vector quantity.

Note: Current is a vector because it has a magnitude and a direction. But the thing is a vector always obeys the law of addition of vectors. Since current doesn’t obey it and it follows algebraic addition, currents are scalar.

“Upthrust” is an example of a force. Is upthrust a scalar or vector quantity? Vector because it is a force.

Half life is a scalar quantity.

Time is not a component of a vector. Time is one of the coordinates. There is a “time direction”, which is a vector. In Special Relativity, for any given observer, time is a vector in spacetime that points in the direction perpendicular to all spatial directions for that observer.

Scalar, a physical quantity that is completely described by its magnitude; examples of scalars are volume, density, speed, energy, mass, and time. Other quantities, such as force and velocity, have both magnitude and direction and are called vectors.

Scalars and vectors are differentiated depending on their definition. A scalar quantity is defined as the physical quantity that has only magnitude, for example, mass and electric charge….Difference Between Scalar and Vector.
