What is magnitude?
Magnitude is simply a numerical quantity or value.
Generally in physics, it refers to the quantity or distance. With respect to movement, we can correlate the magnitude with the size and speed of the object while travelling.
Let us understand it with an example – we have the temperature of three cities 24℃, 12℃, and 5℃. We add only the magnitudes and unit remains the same. Here, 24, 12, 5 is the magnitude, and ℃ is the unit.
