VECTOR QUANTITY AND SCALAR QUANTITY

Vector and scalar are two type of quantities used in physics and mathematics. 

Scalar quantity 

Quantities that can be described by magnitude (numerical value) alone is known as scalar quantities.

Eg:- mass of an object, distance covered by an object, energy, time

Vector quantity 

Quantity that can be described by both magnitude (numerical value) and direction is known as vector quantity 

Eg:- displacement of body, gravity force
