A scalar in physical science is a unit measurement in a single direction. For example, you can have a mass scalar, which is 1kg to the right, or you can have an energy scalar, which is 1J forwards.
Here are some examples:* energy * power * mass
Yes mass is definitely scalar
A scalar is a quantity that has no direction. Examples include: -- cost -- temperature -- speed -- energy -- work -- mass -- weight -- volume -- density -- duration
A vector has magnitude and direction. A scalar has magnitude only. A car moving 60 mph North has a specific amouunt of kinetic energy, according to the formula KE = 1/2 * mass * velocity squared. If the car is moving 60 mph South is the KE the same?? ..Yes! Energy is a scalar! Nothing squared is a vector!! Length has direction. area does not
Length, mass, volume, temperature, density, and energy are all examples of scalar quantities.

Potential energy is a scalar quantity. Energy is the sum of a scalar part and a vector part. Energy W is the product of velocity V and momentum P; W = [c+V]P =[ -V.P + cP]. The Potential energy is the scalar energy -V.P=-vmv = -mv^2.Physicists consider energy a scalar quantity, but that is incorrect, energy is a Quaternion quantity, a scalar and a vector . The vector energy is the "Dark Energy" is hidden in plain sight, cP.
By definition a scalar quantity has magnitude only, it has no direction. Mass is non-directional.

A scalar quantity is a non-vector quantity. In a vector quantity, direction is relevant. In a scalar quantity, it is not. For example, mass (measured in kg.) is a scalar; force is usually indicated as a vector (magnitude in Newton, but the direction is also relevant).A scalar quantity is a non-vector quantity.
