Question

What are the differences between scalar and vector quantity?

Answer 1

A scalar quantity is a one dimensional measurement of a quantity, like temperature, or mass. A vector has more than one number associated with it. A simple example is velocity. It has a magnitude, called speed, as well as a direction, like North or Southwest or 10 degrees west of North.

eg..mass, distance..
vector.....it has both value n direction...
eg...displacement, weight...
