Which of the following is NOT an example of a vector quantity?

  1. Velocity

  2. Mass

  3. Time

  4. Momentum

The correct answer is: Mass

A vector quantity is defined as a physical quantity that has both magnitude and direction. Velocity, momentum, and mass all have both magnitude and direction. However, time is a scalar quantity as it only has a magnitude and does not have a direction associated with it. Therefore, the correct answer is B as it is the only choice that is not an example of a vector quantity.
