Mass is a scalar value. Scalar refers to the magnitude of the object. Vector refers to the direction. If an object is moving, it's mass is scalar and its velocity is vectorial because the velocity has a magnitude (how fast) and a direction. Hope this helps. Search Scalar and vector for the true scientific definitions.

Do vectors have quantity?

Both scalars and vectors have quantity. The difference is a vector has quantity and direction, whereas scalars only have quantity.


Is heat a scalar or vector?

Heat is energy. It and temperature are both scalars.


Does every scalar quantity has its vector counterpart?

Not every scalar quantity has a vector counterpart. Scalars are quantities that have magnitude only, such as temperature or mass, while vectors are quantities that have both magnitude and direction, like velocity or force. Some scalar quantities simply do not have a corresponding vector counterpart.


What are some types of scalars?

Some examples of scalars include temperature, speed, mass, and energy. Scalars are physical quantities that have a magnitude but no direction.
