Answer:

because pressure does not have direction

Explanation:

pressure is a scalar quantity, not a vector quantity. It has magnitude but no direction sense associated with it. Pressure force acts in all directions at a point inside a gas. At the surface of a gas, the pressure force acts perpendicular (at right angle) to the surface

Answer:

why pressure is not a vector quantity?

a vector quantity is a physical quantity having both magnitude and direction.

p=f/a

and pressure is applied on that area and in that direction in which force is applied. the only condition should be no other forces except our force should be applied on the body
