Such a quantity is called a vector.

A shining example is velocity itself.

velocity is the rate of change of displacement- the distance moved by particle in a specified direction.

Since velocity = displacement/time taken = vector/scalar, Velocity thus has both a direction and a magnitude (magnitude = speed of particle)

Another examples include quantities such as Force, acceleration, displacement

What is a quantity that has both magnitude and direction?

A vector is a quantity that has both magnitude (size or length) and direction. Examples of vectors include velocity, force, and displacement. Scalars, on the other hand, only have magnitude and no specific direction.

What is displacement in physical?

Displacement is a vector quantity. This means it has both size AND direction. Therefore, displacement is defined as distance in a given direction. Rather then simply 'distance'. Distance itself is a scalar quantity... and only has size. No direction. 20m - Distance. 20m upwards - Displacement.


Velocity is a measure of both an object's speed and its what?

Velocity is a measure of both an object's speed and its direction. It describes the rate at which an object changes its position in a specific direction over a certain period of time. Velocity is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude (speed) and direction.


Do vectors have a direction?

Yes, vectors must have the direction. Without direction, it is simply a scalar quantity.
