Answer:
A quantity that does not depend on the direction is called a scalar quantity. Vector quantities have two characteristics, a magnitude, and a direction. Scalar quantities have only a magnitude. When comparing two vector quantities of the same type, you have to compare both the magnitude and the direction.
Scalar quantities only have magnitude (size). Scalar quantities include distance...
A quantity that is specified by both size and direction is a vector. Displacement includes both size and direction and is an example of a vector. However, distance is a physical quantity that does not include a direction and isn't a vector.

Explanation:
The form of Newton's 2nd Law that we use for this is:
F - f = ma where F is the Force pulling the mass down the ramp forward, f is the friction trying to keep it from moving forward, m is the mass and a is the acceleration (and our unknown).
We know mass and we can find f, but we don't have F. But we can solve for that by rewriting our main equation to reflect F:
That's everything we need.
w is weight: 6.0(9.8). Filling in:
6.0(9.8)sin20 - .15(6.0)(9.8) = 6.0a and
2.0 × 10¹ - 8.8 = 6.0a and
11 = 6.0a so
a = 1.8 m/s/s
Answer: Work Done would remain same.
Let us assume that the velocity is constant while taking the load up the inclined plane. Then, the kinetic energy would remain the same. This is because kinetic energy is dependent on velocity 
. If that is constant, the kinetic energy would remain same. The potential energy is dependent on the height
. If the height is changed, then potential energy varies. In the question, it is mentioned that without changing the height, the length of the inclined plane is changed. Therefore, the potential energy would be same as before.
We know, work done is equal to potential energy plus kinetic energy. Since there is no change in any of these, the required work done would not change.
Answer:
The heating element of the heater is made up of alloy which has very high resistance so when current flows through the heating element, it becomes too hot and glows red. But the resistance of cord which is usually of copper or aluminum is very low so it does not glow.
