  The quantity is either a vector or a scalar. Scalars are quantities that are fully described by a magnitude (or numerical value) alone. o Examples –length, area, volume, speed, mass, density, pressure, temperature, energy, work, and power Vectors are quantities that are fully described by both a magnitude and a direction.
