2 Vectors & Scalars (Definition) Definition A vector v is a quantity that bears both magnitude and direction. Examples of vectors: displacement, velocity, force, angular momentum,... Definition A scalar t is a quantity that bears only magnitude. Examples of scalars: time, temperature, distance, speed, area, volume,... Josh Engwer (TTU) Vectors: Introduction 23 April / 30
