Some examples of scalars include temperature, speed, mass, and energy. Scalars are physical quantities that have a magnitude but no direction.

Are there any more measurement types other than vectors and scalars?

No.


Type of quantity?

there are two types of quantities - Scalars and vectors. Scalars are quantities which intrinsically have the property of magnitude only. Vectors are quantities which intrinsically have both the properties of magnitude and direction.


What are difference between scalars and vectors?

What are difference between scalars and vectors


What is the two types of physical quantities?

Generally there are two types of physical quantities. One without direction known as scalars other with direction known as vectors. While there are other physical quantities as well that cannot be classified under the two above mentioned categories, they are tensors, matrices, spinors and quaternions.


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.


One difference between vectors and scalars?

Vectors have a direction associated with them, scalars do not.


Can scalars be negative in mathematics?

Yes, scalars can be negative in mathematics. Scalars are quantities that have magnitude but no direction, so they can be positive or negative depending on the context in which they are used.


Is it possible the add a vector and scalar?

no!!!only scalars and scalars and only vectors and vectors can be added.


Why is the difference between scalars and vectors important?

Without the difference between scalars and vectors the Universe doesn't work !


Do vectors have quantity?

Both scalars and vectors have quantity. The difference is a vector has quantity and direction, whereas scalars only have quantity.


What could not be vector magnitudes?

Vector magnitudes cannot represent physical quantities that are directionless, such as temperature or time. Scalars are used to represent these types of quantities.


What are the two kinds of measure?
