How did James W[SIZE=16px]att found out that one horsepower is equal to 550 ft lb/s ? There must be some sort of derivation or something that he did.Can anyone show me that derivation.

These things are a little bit difficult to understand but as far as i get, the conclusion for this is that center of mass is position in 3D space so it will have both magnitude and direction .

A point in 3 dimensional space is a vector ??

How are they vector quantities take any frame of your choice and please prove it to me .

I am talking about are they vector quantities.

I did not quite get it can you give more explanation please .

I am a little bit confused on Center of Mass and Center of Gravity about what are they vectors or scalars . As I may think they are neither because they are simply two points . Am I saying right or wrong .
