Vector quantities are those that must be described with both a magnitude and direction. Scalar quantities can be described with only a single value.

Solar refers to anything related to the sun, such as solar energy or solar radiation. Vector quantities are physical quantities that have both magnitude and direction, such as velocity or force.
Scalar and vector quantities are both used in physics to describe properties of objects. They both have magnitude, which represents the size or amount of the quantity. However, the key difference is that vector quantities also have direction associated with them, while scalar quantities do not.
Scalar and vector quantities are both used to describe physical quantities in physics. The key similarity between them is that they both involve numerical values. However, vector quantities also have a direction associated with them, while scalar quantities do not.
You forgot to include the list, but typical vector quantities include position, velocity, acceleration, force, torque, momentum, rotational momentum.
yes
Scalar quantities are physical quantities that have only magnitude, such as mass, temperature, and time. Vector quantities have both magnitude and direction, such as velocity, displacement, and force. Scalars can be added algebraically, while vectors need to consider both magnitude and direction in addition to standard arithmetic operations.
