Which quantity is a scalar quantity?

A.

acceleration

B.

area

C.

displacement

D.

force

E.

velocity

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

Scalar quantity are those which only have magnitude and no direction.

For example: mass, time, distance etc.

Vector quantity are those which have both magnitude and direction.

For example: displacement, velocity etc.

From the given options, the quantity which is scalar is are a because it only has magnitude but no directions.

Where acceleration, velocity, displacement and force all are vector quantities.

Hence, the correct answer is option B.

Area is the scalar quantity,
