    Car moving at 70 miles per hour

    Explanation:

    A scalar is a quantity that can be fully described by magnitude alone.

    Examples of scalar quantities include: Distance and speed

    Something is not a scalar quantity when it is given direction. When this happens, it becomes a vector quantity.

    Thus, from the choices, we can see that the car moving at 70 miles per hour is the scalar quantity as it is the only choice without a direction.
