Question

What is the difference between scalar and vector quantities and what two methods are used to describe vectors?

Answer: Scalar quantities measure only distance (speed) while vector quantities measure both distance and direction, ( which is specifically known s displacement?)

I do not understand what the second part of the question means.


Thanks!
