  1. Q1. Which of the following is a vector quantity?

    • A.Displacement
    • B.Distance
    • C.Speed
    • D.Time

    Answer: A. Displacement

    NCERT fact (physics, chapter 'Describing Motion Around Us'): Displacement has both magnitude and direction. Why option A fits - Correct. Distractor analysis: option B) 'Distance' misses the point - Distance is a scalar; option C) 'Speed' is incorrect: Speed is a scalar. Final answer - A) Displacement.

  2. Q2. Which of the following is a scalar quantity?

    • A.Speed
    • B.Velocity
    • C.Displacement
    • D.Acceleration

    Answer: A. Speed

    Eliminate first - option B) 'Velocity' is wrong because A vector; option C) 'Displacement' is incorrect: A vector; option D) 'Acceleration' fails since A vector. That leaves only option A). Confirm with the chapter rule: Speed has only magnitude -> scalar (physics, chapter 'Describing Motion Around Us'). Answer: A) Speed.

  3. Q3. Which quantity tells only how fast a body moves, not in which direction?

    • A.speed
    • B.velocity
    • C.displacement
    • D.acceleration

    Answer: A. speed
