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.
It is an oxymoron. A measurement can be a vector or a scalar. It cannot be both.
scalar lol
A scalar times a vector is a vector.
vector
current is vector or scalar
scalar direction is a vector quantity
vector
scalar
Scalar
An earthquake is neither a scalar nor a vector. It is an event.
Distance is a scalar. But displacement is a vector.
Since you can represent that with a single number, it isn't a vector - just a scalar.
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.
