Question
- how do scalars and vectors differ? a) scalars have direction b) vectors have units c) scalars have units d) vectors have direction
Brief Explanations
Scalars are quantities with only magnitude, while vectors have both magnitude and direction. Units can be associated with both scalars and vectors. Option a is incorrect as scalars have no direction. Option b is not the key - difference as both can have units. Option c is not the key - difference as units are not what differentiates them primarily. The main difference is that vectors have direction while scalars do not.
