Is electric field strength scalar or vector?
The strength of the electric field is a scalar quantity. But it's the magnitude of thecomplete electric field vector.At any point in space, the electric field vector is the strength of the force, and thedirection in which it points, that would be felt by a tiny positive charge located there.
Is magnetic field strength a vector quantity?
When one refers to the strength of a magnetic field, they're usually referring to the scalar magnitude of the magnetic field vector, so no.
Can electric field intensity be a scalar quantity?
No,because electric field (force/charge) is a vector quantity, i.e. , it has both magnitude as well as direction.
What physical quantity use both magnitude and direction?
Any vector quantity does. Examples of vector quantities include but are not limited to . . . - Displacement - Velocity - Acceleration - Torque - Force - Electric field - Momentum - Poynting vector
Is magnetic field line scalar or vector quantity?
Vector.
