scalars are those quantities which is defined my magnitude only and it has no direction.
where as vector are those quantites which has both magnitude as well as direction.
example :- mass is a scalar but when u multiply it with g i.e acceleration due to gravity it got its weight . i.e m.g which is a vector since g has direction

Both magnitude and direction is defined as vector
eg: Displacement , velocity
only magnitude defined as scalar
eg: speed,distance
