Noo!
because it is a number
and distance that is a scalar quantity so it can not be negative and it have no direction also
No,because scalar quantities have no direction. So they cant be negative
Mass is a scalar quantity. Scalar quantities are those characteristics of matter that can be measured with a scale, while vector quantities are those that involve direction as well as quantity.
it is a scalar quantity
Scalar quantity.
Force cannot be a scalar quantity.

Mass is a scalar quantity. Scalar quantities are those characteristics of matter that can be measured with a scale, while vector quantities are those that involve direction as well as quantity.
All scalar quantities have magnitudes; what scalars don't have is direction. The magnitudes can take any value, +ve or -ve (or zero).
scalar cannot be added to a vector quantity
radius is a scalar quantity, it can not have a negative value.
Displacement is a vector quantity which refers to the distance moved with respect to a position. If the position is home, once you are home, displacement is zero. Distance is a scalar quantity which refers to the distance moved. This can be counted from the start to end. Since scalar quantity cannot go negative (it cannot drop but only rise), it can never be zero. If you moved 1 metre north then 1 metre south, displacement is zero metre but distance is 2 metre.
scalar quantity has only magnitude whereas vector quantity has magnitude as well as direction
Scalar is a type of quantity which contains magnitude only and has no direction. For example: distance and speed
A scalar quantity may have positive and negative values - it is simply a real number. But it doesn't have a direction. Think of it as a "vector in one dimension" - whereas the usual vectors have at least 2 dimensions.
It depends upon the condition.But basically, to be a vector, the physical quantities needs to follow vector algebra.but current dos not follow it so it is scalar quantity.
temperature is a scalar quantity................
