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.

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.
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.
What is scalar addition?
The additional of scalars (normal numbers), as opposed to the addition of vectors.
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 the rules of adding vectors and scalars the same?
no
Why can't we add or subtract vectors like scalars?
Because scalars do not take in the direction but just the magnitude while vectors can. You can add vectors ONLY if they are in the same direction.
Are the rules for adding vectors and scalars the same?
Yes
What are difference between scalars and vectors?
What are difference between scalars and vectors
One difference between vectors and scalars?
Vectors have a direction associated with them, scalars do not.
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.
How are scalars and vectors simi?
They both have magnitude.
What are the two kinds of measure?
vectors and scalars.....
What are two kind of measurement?
