Vectors represent one of the most important mathematical systems, which is used to handle certain types of problems in Geometry, Mechanics and other branches of Applied Mathematics, Physics and Engineering.
Scalar and vector quantities : Those quantities which have only magnitude and which are not related to any fixed direction in space are called scalar quantities, or briefly scalars. Examples: Mass, Volume, Density, Work, Temperature etc. Those quantities which have both magnitude and direction, are called vectors. Displacement, velocity, acceleration, momentum, weight, force are examples of vector quantities.
