Mass is a scalar value. Scalar refers to the magnitude of the object. Vector refers to the direction. If an object is moving, it's mass is scalar and its velocity is vectorial because the velocity has a magnitude (how fast) and a direction. Hope this helps.

Is space a vector or scalars?
Measurable quantities are vectors or scalars. "Space" is not a measurable quantity. "Volume" is. It's a scalar.
Multiplying or dividing vectors by scalars results in what?
The result is a vector.
What two vectors does a vector have?
It has both velocity and direction. A vector has direction and magnitude.
Can Vectors be added together scalar quantities cannot?
Vectors can be added to other vectors in the same vector space. Scalars can be added to other scalars if they have the same units. Scalars cannot be added to vectors, nor vice versa, directly.
Are vectors and scalars the same?
No, scalars and vectors are not the same. Scalars are measurements in numbers. Examples: work, energy, mass, speed, and distance. Scalars measure in one magnitude. Vectors measure velocity, acceleration, force, and momentum.
What has vector?
Force, velocity, acceleration, and displacement are vectors. Mass, temperature, time, cost, and speed are scalars (not vectors).
Is a scalar a component of a vector?
Answer: A vector is always the product of 2 scalars
Is it possible the add a vector and scalar?
no!!!only scalars and scalars and only vectors and vectors can be added.

Multiplying or dividing vectors by scalars results in what?
The result is a vector.
How are scalar and vector different?
Vectors have direction. Scalars don't.
What two vectors does a vector have?
It has both velocity and direction. A vector has direction and magnitude.
Do vectors have quantity?
Both scalars and vectors have quantity. The difference is a vector has quantity and direction, whereas scalars only have quantity.
Is it scalar or vector when a car stops at a stop sign?
It is neither a scalar or a vector? Scalar and vectors are used to describe quantities, for example scalars include distance and mass, while vectors include weight and velocity. We do not say that a situation is a scalar or a vector.
Is heat a scalar or vector?
Heat is energy. It and temperature are both scalars.
Are pressure and atmospheric pressure vectors?
No they are scalars, though the rate of change could be a vector and the wind is definitely a vector (both direction and speed)
What are Scalar and vector values?
scalars are those quantities which have magnitude as well as unit.and vector are those quantities which has magnitude,unit as well as direction.
