Answer 2

Answer:

Vector quantity :-

1. Has both magnitude and direction.

2. It is multidimensional.

3. Cannot divide another vector.

4. Physical quantity

5. Example : velocity

Scalar quantity :-

1. Has only direction.

2. It is one dimensional.

3. Can divide another scalar.

4. Physical quantity

5. Example : speed
