Similarity: 2 (A) State The Similarity and The Difference Between Scalars and Vectors

Scalars and vectors can both represent physical quantities, but scalars have only magnitude while vectors also have direction. Some examples of scalars include density, energy, and speed, while vectors include force, momentum, and velocity since they have both magnitude and direction.
