Yes, that's correct. A vector quantity has both magnitude and direction, while a scalar quantity only has magnitude. Examples of vector quantities include force, velocity, and displacement, while examples of scalar quantities include mass, time, and temperature.
A scalar quantity defines only magnitude, while a vector quantity defines both a magnitude and direction.
Vector is NOT a scalar. The two (vector and scalar) are different things. A vector is a quantity (measurement) in which a direction is important. A scalar is a quantity in which a direction is NOT important.
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.
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.
There is no such thing as scalar and vector forces. However, there are scalar and vector QUANTITIES, and force is a vector quantity, as all forces have direction and magnitude. Scalar quantities, on the other hand, have only magnitude and no direction.
It is a scalar quantity unless you define direction, then it becomes a vector quantity.
Scalar quantity is when you have a magnitude but no direction such as speed
direction
A scalar quantity defines only magnitude, while a vector quantity defines both a magnitude and direction.
A scalar multiplied by a vector involves multiplying each component of the vector by the scalar value. This operation scales the vector's magnitude while retaining its direction if the scalar is positive, or reversing its direction if the scalar is negative. The result is a new vector that has the same direction as the original (or the opposite direction if the scalar is negative) but a different magnitude.
A scalar is a magnitude that doesn't specify a direction. A vector is a magnitude where the direction is important and is specified.

scalar has only a magnitude vector has both magnitude and direction
A positive scalar multiplied by a vector, will only change the vector's magnitude, not the direction. A negative scalar multiplied by the vector will reverse the direction by 180°.
