accelration is a vector quantity
A
true
B
false
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Because velocity has both magnitude and direction, it is a vector quantity. Therefore, Acceleration is also a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Detailed explanation-2: -Acceleration is a vector quantity as it has direction and magnitude both as well as it follow vector addition.

Detailed explanation-3: -Acceleration is a vector quantity. This means that you include direction while describing acceleration. Slowing down means that you are decreasing your velocity, which means there is a negative change in velocity and therefore a negative acceleration.

Detailed explanation-4: -distance is a vector, velocity is a scalar, acceleration is a vector.

Detailed explanation-5: -When a body moves with a constant velocity, it signifies that the body moves with a constant speed in a particular direction. Thus, the given statement that, ‘Velocity is a vector quantity’ is true.
