Answer:

quantities

Explanation:

Vectors and scalars quantities are not the same quantities.

The quantity which is independent of direction is called scalars quantity. It has only one characteristics. It depends on magnitude only. It is one dimensional measurement of a quantity. Length, volume, speed, area, temperature can be measured in terms of only magnitude and are scalars quantities.

Vectors quantity has more than one dimensional quantities. It can be measured in terms of both magnitude and directions. Displacement, velocity, acceleration, lift, drag force are all vector quantities.
