All forces are vector quantities. Consequently, if "centrifugal force" actually existed,
it would be a vector quantity.
No. Force has direction; 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's a 0th order tensor, also known as a scalar.
Force F is the first derivative of energy W. Energy is a Quaternion quantity consisting of a scalar energy (potential V) and a vector energy (e.g cmV = cP ), W =V + cP= [V,cP]. Force =XW = [d/dr,DEL][V,cP] = [dV/dr -cDEL.P, cdP/dr + DEL V + cDELxP] There are Five Forces: dV/dr is Centripetal scalar Force cDEL.P is Centrifugal scalar Force cdP/dr is Tangent vector Force DEL V is Gradient vector Force cDELxP is Curl/circulation force
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.
The five different forces are the derivatives of the Quaternion Energy E=Es + Ev=[Es,Ev] where Es is the Scalar Energy and Ev the vector Energy. Force = XE = [d/dr,Del][Es,Ev] = [dEs/dr -Del . Ev, dEv/dr + Del Es + DelxEv] dEs/dr the scalar derivative of the Scalar Energy, the Scalar Centripetal Force Del.Ev the Divergence of the Vector Energy, the Scalar Centrifugal Force dEv/dr the scalar derivative of the Vector Energy, the Vector Tangent Force Del Es the vector Derivative of the Scalar Energy, the Vector Gradient Force DelxEv the Curl of the Vector Energy, the Vector Circulation Force.

A scalar quantity is a non-vector quantity. In a vector quantity, direction is relevant. In a scalar quantity, it is not. For example, mass (measured in kg.) is a scalar; force is usually indicated as a vector (magnitude in Newton, but the direction is also relevant).A scalar quantity is a non-vector quantity.

No, it's a vector.
Force is a vector. The direction is relevant.
It's a vector, and I believe it always points upward.
Since torque is a force, and as such has a direction, it is a vector.
Thrust is a force and a force is a vector quantity having a magnitude and direction
