A vector has magnitude and direction. A scalar has magnitude only.
A car moving 60 mph North has a specific amouunt of kinetic energy, according to the formula KE = 1/2 * mass * velocity squared.
If the car is moving 60 mph South is the KE the same?? ..Yes!
Energy is a scalar!
Nothing squared is a vector!!
Length has direction. area does not
No, kinetic energy is a scalar quantity, not a vector. It only has magnitude and no direction.
Potential energy is a scalar quantity. Energy is the sum of a scalar part and a vector part. Energy W is the product of velocity V and momentum P; W = [c+V]P =[ -V.P + cP]. The Potential energy is the scalar energy -V.P=-vmv = -mv^2.Physicists consider energy a scalar quantity, but that is incorrect, energy is a Quaternion quantity, a scalar and a vector . The vector energy is the "Dark Energy" is hidden in plain sight, cP.
Gravitational potential energy is a scalar. Gravity also has a vector energy cmV= cP.
No, power is not a vector quantity. It is a scalar quantity that represents the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred.
No, work is not a vector quantity. It is a scalar quantity that represents the transfer of energy when a force is applied over a distance.

True. A vector quantity has both magnitude and direction, while a scalar quantity only has magnitude.
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, work is not a vector quantity. It is a scalar quantity that represents the transfer of energy when a force is applied over a distance.
Temperature is a scalar quantity. It has magnitude but not direction.
Energy is a scalar quantity.Answer2: It depends on the angle!Energy can be a scalar or a vector; consider the vectors F force and D displacement:FD = -F.D + FxD = |FD| (cos(angle) + v sin(angle)).F.D is called work a form of energy and is a scalar; FxD is called Torque and is a vector form of energy. both work and Torque have units of joules or newton times meters.Energy like many quantities in physics is a quaternion consisting of a scalar part and a vector part; E = Escalar + Evector = E(cos(angle) + v sin(angle)), whether the quantity is a scalar or a vector or both depends on the angle.
temperature is a scalar quantity................
length is a scalar quantity buddy . but displacement is vector quantity. Length is a vector quantity If it is associated with direction.. Because having direction make it vector... S0 being vector or scalar depends upon how and where it is used..
Electrostatic potential is a scalar quantity. It represents the potential energy per unit charge at a given point in an electric field.
