You'll need to provide a context. In naval engineering, displacement is a scalar quantity; if you're talking about motion, then it's a vector quantity.
Speed = distance/ time Velocity = displacement / time distance is scalar and displacement is vector
A vector quantity includes a direction; a scalar does not.A vector quantity includes a direction; a scalar does not.A vector quantity includes a direction; a scalar does not.A vector quantity includes a direction; a scalar does not.
angular displacement is a vector quantity when theta (angle) is small, otherwise it is scalar.
It can be both true or false - you can treat distance as a scalar, or as a vector. If you say that (say) the distance from the cities of Cochabamba and Quillacollo is 13 kilometers - WITHOUT specifiying the direction - then it is a scalar. If you also say that Quillacollo is to the east of Cochabamba, then it is a vector.
scalar direction is a vector quantity
Displacement is a vector quantity and not a scalar quantity. This is because displacement has both magnitude and direction.
Yes. Displacement requires a direction and hence is a vector

length is a scalar quantity buddy . but displacement is vector quantity. Length is a vector quantity If it is associated with direction.. Because having direction make it vector... S0 being vector or scalar depends upon how and where it is used..

There is a big difference between Scalar and vector quantity. Vector quantity means something where direction is not important.eg- Displacement(the shortest distance between the displacement points of an object). whereas in scalar quantity Direction is important. eg. Speed
Velocity is a vector.Its magnitude is called 'speed'.
no, it's a vector dude
displacement is the vector quantity and the distance is scalar quantity, displacement is the shortest distance between two points.
