Explanation

Definition: Possess both magnitude and direction.

Representation: Represented by arrows, where the length indicates magnitude and the arrowhead indicates direction.

Examples: 

• Displacement
• Velocity
• Acceleration
• Force
• Momentum

Additional information 

Difference from Scalars: Unlike scalars, which only have magnitude (e.g., speed), vectors require both to be fully defined

Explanation

• Weight is a vector quantity
• Because it is a force defined as the product of mass and the acceleration due to gravity (W = mg).
• It has both magnitude (amount of force) and direction (downward, towards the center of the Earth)

Additional information 

Mass,  Time, and temperature are scalar quantities

Explanation

• Solar and wind energy are renewable sources of energy, meaning they are sustainable and will not run out.
• Solar energy is generated from the sun's rays.
• Wind energy is generated from the wind.

Explanation

Scalar quantities are physical quantities that have only magnitude (amount or size) but no direction.

Examples of scalar quantities include:

• Mass
• Temperature
• Time
• Energy
• Distance
