    An example of scalar is speed and example of vector is velocity.

    Explanation:

    Scalar quantity does not possess any direction, they only have the magnitude but vector quantity has both the magnitude as well as direction. Speed do not rely on the direction, the magnitude alone describes the speed fully.

    But to properly clarify about the velocity we must be aware of both magnitude as well as direction.

    For example the proper statement for speed and velocity is, that bike is in the speed of 50 m/s and that car has the velocity of 30 m/s in north direction.
