Basically a vector quantity can be described in two ways:

* A quantity that has both a magnitude and a direction, or

* A quantity that has more than one component (for example, a component in the x-direction, a component in the y-direction, and one in the z-direction).

A vector quantity is a physical quantity that has both magnitude and direction. Examples include velocity, force, and acceleration. Vectors are represented by arrows, where the length of the arrow represents the magnitude of the quantity and the direction of the arrow indicates the direction of the quantity.

Associates the direction taken with the speed

Any quantity that has direction and magnitude associated with it is considered a vector quantity. An example of a vector quantity would be velocity. It must be expressed with reference to a direction.-aerol_
