Scalars and Vectors
• A scalar is a single number that represents a magnitude– Ex. distance, mass, speed,
temperature, etc.
• A vector is a set of numbers that describe both a magnitude and direction– Ex. velocity (the magnitude of velocity
is speed), force, momentum, etc.

Characteristics of Vectors
A Vector is something that has two and only two defining characteristics:
1. Magnitude: the 'size' or 'quantity'
2. Direction: the vector is directed from one place to another.
![Page 5: 2-D motion. 2 Scalars and Vectors A scalar is a single number that represents a magnitude –Ex. distance, mass, speed, temperature, etc. A vector is a](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110213/56649ebd5503460f94bc6aaa/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
A point at the beginning and an arrow at the end. The length of the arrow corresponds to the magnitude of the vector.•The direction the arrow points is the vector direction.Vectors are drawn to scale!!
Vectors can be drawn

Example
•The direction of the vector is 55° North of East
