    A magnetic field is a vector quantity because of directional force.

    Option A

    Explanation:

    The magnetic field at any case is a vector quantity as it has both magnitude and direction. A magnetic field has a direction associated with a field as well as the strength of the field. The magnetic field is the space that the magnet creates around itself and is hence a vector quantity as it can be experienced. The S. I. unit of magnetic field is Tesla. It is to be noted that a magnetic field always contains strength.
