Force is a vector quantity made up of magnitude and direction. It is measured in units such as newtons (N) and can be represented graphically as an arrow. The magnitude of a force is the strength or intensity of the force, while the direction indicates the line along which the force acts.
Force is space gradient of energy. As more energy is provided within a short distance then force produced will be intense. This is how a fighter gives a heavy blow on the opponents face.
Ask yourself "Does the direction make any difference ?" Cost of a house, volume of a sound, temperature of a hamburger: 'No' ===> scalar quantities Velocity on my trip home, force on a ball at the top of a hill: 'Yes' ===> vector quantities
No, height is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude (numerical value) and direction (up or down). In physics, vectors are quantities that have both magnitude and direction, while scalars have only magnitude.
A scalar quantity is just that, a quantity. Mass, speed, weight, height and the like. A vector quantity has direction. A mass moving South, 30 m/s straight up and all quantities having directionality included.

The 'physical dimensions' of force are [ mass x length/time2 ].
No, height is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude (numerical value) and direction (up or down). In physics, vectors are quantities that have both magnitude and direction, while scalars have only magnitude.
A directional quantity is a physical quantity that has both magnitude and direction, meaning it involves not just numerical value but also specific orientation or orientation in space. Examples include velocity, force, and acceleration, as they require both a value (speed or magnitude) and a direction (up, down, left, right, etc.).
A scalar quantity is just that, a quantity. Mass, speed, weight, height and the like. A vector quantity has direction. A mass moving South, 30 m/s straight up and all quantities having directionality included.
a force definitely has a direction.it is a vector quantity(a physical quantity having both magnitude as well as direction).when we apply force we not only push or pull in any haphazard manner but we are giving the push,pull or whatever it may be in a definite direction.eg.when you pick up a bucket of water.you are picking it up in a definite direction
Force is made up of two components: magnitude, which corresponds to the strength of the force, and direction, which indicates the line along which the force is applied.
A Scalar value is considered to only need a magnitude. A magnitude is just a value. Speed is considered a scalar quantity since it does not tell you anything about direction, just that's it's going 60 mph. A vector quantity is made up of both a magnitude and a direction. An example is velocity. Velocity you state how fast you are going, and the direction in which you are going in.
WEIGHT is a VECTOR quantity .. because the weight has the direction into the surface of the earth to the down effected by the gravity .. but mass is a scalar quantity like 90 kg .. so .. WEIGHT IS VECTOR ..
