Question

Distinguish between Scalar and vector quantity​

Answer 1

Scalar quantities are quantities that are described only by a magnitude. They do not have a direction of action. For fluids the relevant scalar quantities are • temperature T , measured in K.

Vector, in physics, a quantity that has both magnitude and direction. It is typically represented by an arrow whose direction is the same as that of the quantity and whose length is proportional to the quantity's magnitude.

Answer 2

Answer:

Scalar quantities are those which have magnitude, but vector quantities have both, magnitude and direction.

For example, Speed is a scalar quantity, whereas Velocity is a vector quantity.
