Physics - Scalers and Vectors

  Introduction to Vectors and Scalars We come into contact with many physical quantities in the natural world on a daily basis. For example, things like time, mass, weight, force, and electric charge, are physical quantities with which we are all familiar. We know that time passes and physical objects have mass. Things have weight due to gravity. We exert forces when we open doors, walk along the street and kick balls. We experience electric charge directly through static shocks in winter and through using anything which runs on electricity. There are many physical quantities in nature, and we can divide them up into two broad groups called vectors and scalars. Scalars and Vectors Scalars are physical quantities which have only a number value or a size (magnitude). A scalar tells you how much of something there is. Definition: Scalar A scalar is a physical quantity that has only a magnitude (size). For example, a person buys a tub of margarine which is labelled with a mass of 500g....

Concord can also be seen as the relationship between words in gender, number, case, person, or any other grammatical category which affects the forms of the words. Concord, as it is also often referred to, mainly focuses on subject-verb agreement. This is subdivided into three categories: Grammatical concord Concord of proximity Notional concord "Some Rules for Grammatical Concord" The grand rule of subject-verb concord is that a singular subject takes a singular verb and a plural subject takes a plural verb.

In other words, a singular verb ends with an ‘s’ and a plural verb has no ‘s’. Verb Singular   •     Plural comes     ...

Mathematics - Numbers

  Numbers There are different types of numbers in the world. Each number is different from another, yet they may share some common characteristics. To help themselves keep track of and understand the similarities and differences between numbers, mathematicians have developed a grouping system that categorizes and describes numbers based on their characteristics. Some of the most common groups in the system are: Natural numbers Whole numbers Integers Rationals Real numbers Prime numbers Natural numbers The natural numbers are all the numbers that you learn when you're a baby, like 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and on and on. The natural numbers are also sometimes called the counting numbers because they're the first numbers you learn how to count. Zero is not a natural number. Whole Numbers The whole numbers are the natural numbers and zero. i.e 0, 1,2,3,4,5..... Integers Integers are a special group or category of numbers that: Consist of the set of numbers: {. . .-4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3...
