Why is temperature scalar?

Physics

shepuryov [24]3 years ago

Temperature is just a measure of how HOT or COLD a substance is, which can be easily defined by a magnitude using a numerical value say “300 K” or “27°C”. Hence we can say it is a scalar quantity.

But the energy which transfer by virtue of a temperature difference is a vector quantity, as it has both magnitude and direction of motion (from High temperature to low temperature region).

⚠HI YOU GUYS HELLLP BRAINLIEST AND 100 PIONTS⚠ Use THE MAP
Setler [38]

Answer:

5.A mid-ocean ridge or mid-oceanic ridge is an underwater mountain range, formed by plate tectonics. This uplifting of the ocean floor occurs when convection currents rise in the mantle beneath the oceanic crust and create magma where two tectonic plates meet at a divergent boundary.

6.The Nazca plate is an oceanic plate, while the South American plate is continental. The fast moving Nazca plate is moving east towards the South American plate at a downward angle and converging. This process is called subduction, resulting in frequent earthquakes & production of the Andes Mountains.

7.The Nazca plate forms the southeastern part of the Pacific plate. The Nazca and the Pacific plate share both divergent and transform type of plate boundary. The Pacific and the Nazca plate are separating at an increasing rate of about 122-142mm/year.

8.Convection currents in the mantle and in the ocean are similar because they both are responsible for the shaping the Earth's surface. Two forces are behind the movement of Earth's huge land masses. Due to combined action of convection currents and gravity, Earth's plates are in constant motion.
