Step-by-step explanation:
Solution :
Weight is a force which is a vector and has a magnitude and direction. Mass is a scalar. Weight and mass are related
to one another, but they are not the same quantity.
Since, weight = mass × gravity
mass is scalar but gravity is force (vector).
and multiplication of scalar
and vector gives a Vector.
Therefore, Weight is a vector quantity.
