Expert Answer
The mathematical quantities that are used to describe the motion of objects can be divided into two categories. The quantity is either a vector or a scalar. These two categories can be distinguished from one another by their distinct definitions:
- Scalars are quantities that are fully described by a magnitude (or numerical value) alone.
- examples of scalar quantities: mass, distance etc.
- Vectors are quantities that are fully described by both a magnitude as well as direction.
- examples of vector quantities: displacement, velocity
