Scalar Quantity

Vector Quantity

scalar is a quantity with only magnitude and no direction.

A vector is a quantity that has both magnitude and direction.

Regardless of how they are used, they are always one-dimensional.

In terms of application, it might be one, two, or three dimensional.

Only the magnitude of a scalar quantity can vary.

The magnitude of a vector quantity can change, as can the direction in which it is applied.

The standard algebraic rules apply to scalars.

A scalar quantity can divide another scalar quantity fully.

There is no way for a vector quantity to divide another vector quantity.

A scalar amount will always be the result of two scalars.

A scalar or a vector quantity can be the outcome of two vectors.

Scalar quantities include mass, length, time, and so on.

Velocity, acceleration, Polarization, and other vector quantities are examples.
