Vectors need both magnitude and direction.
Vector
A vector is a directed segment representing a quantity that has both magnitude and direction. <Hope this helped!>
for a vector quantity it must have both magnitude and direction and since it has both magnitude and direction it is therefore considered a vector
Yes, that is an acceptable definition.
A vector quantity refers to a physical quantity that has both magnitude and direction. Some examples of vector quantities include velocity (speed and direction), force (magnitude and direction), and displacement (distance and direction).
In math and physics, displacement and velocity are examples of vectors. The definition of a vector is that it is quantity that has both direction and magnitude. A vector is represented by an arrow that shows the direction of the quantity and a length which is the magnitude.
I had this question in my physics class as well and the answer is vector :)
A force is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.
A physical quantity that is specified by both magnitude and direction is a vector by definition.
A quantity with both magnitude and direction is a Vector quantity.
Speed is a scalar quantity because it has magnitude but not direction, velocity is a vector quantity because it has magnitude and direction.
This is known as a vector quantity.

Velocity refers to both speed and direction. A vector refers to both magnitude (the speed in this case) and a direction. Speed without reference to a direction is a scalar, a magnitude without direction.
In the quaternion analysis, a quantity that has magnitude, but not direction; -- distinguished from a vector, which has both magnitude and direction.
A scalar quantity defines only magnitude, while a vector quantity defines both a magnitude and direction.
