What is Scalar and Vector Quantities Explained about?
Vector quantities have both a magnitude and direction, while scalar quantities only have a magnitude. Some examples of vector quantities are displacement, velocity, acceleration, momentum and force. Vector quantities can be added using the Pythagorean theorem or law of cosines to find the resultant vector. Vectors can also be resolved into their x and y components to simplify calculations. The direction of a vector can be described using compass directions or angles.
