Answer:

It has direction and size.

Step-by-step explanation:

All physical quantities are generally grouped into two;

i) Vector quantities

ii) Scalar quantities

Vector quantities are those quantities that has both magnitude (size) and direction.

Scalar quantities are those quantities that has magnitude (size) and no direction.

Velocity is a vector quantity because it has direction and size.
