Is potential difference vector or scalar and how?

Expert Answer
In DC circuits, there is no frequency component, potential difference, measured in volts. Hence, we represent potential difference as a scalar.
In AC circuits, the frequency element, the voltage current remains to be out of phase to each other due to frequency-related component and the oppositions of wires. In such a case, we represent potential difference as a vector, having a real and imaginary component.
