Scalar quantity:

• A scalar property is one that can only be described in terms of magnitude.

• Scalar can be used to describe a variety of quantities in physics.

• Distance, mass, temperature, speed, and energy are only a few examples.

Vector quantity:

• Vector is a quantity that can be described in both the terms of magnitude and direction.

• A vector is a directed line segment in geometry. Certain quantities in physics can only be described using vectors.

• Force, velocity, displacement, position vector, acceleration, linear momentum, and rotational momentum are all examples.
