Acceleration is a vector because it has a magnitude and a direction (Accelerating at a rate of 5 Miles Per Hour North). Speed is a scalar because it only has a magnitude (35 Miles Per Hour) . Velocity is the derivative of the acceleration and is also a vector (35 miles per hour North). Adam Â· 5 years ago. Thumbs up.
What is the difference between a vector and a scalar? â¢ Vectors have both, a magnitude and direction, but scalars have magnitude only. â¢ Vector equality occurs only when both the magnitude and the direction of two vectors of the same type are the same, but in the case of scalars, equality of magnitude is sufficient.
