Question

How are scalar and vector measurements different? give an example of each (at least 1 scalar and 1 vector example)?

Answer 1

A scaler quantity is measured solely on its magnititude (size) and it lacks a direction. A vector, however, is measured on both its magnitude and direction. Examples of scalers are time and temperature because they only consist of a magnitude, but have no direction associated with them. Examples of vectors are velocity, acceleration, and force, because they consist of both a magnitude and a direction.

Hope this helped :)
