Which of the following quantities is a vector? (2019)
Step 1: Understand what a vector is. A vector is a quantity that has both magnitude (size) and direction.
Step 2: Identify the quantities given in the question: displacement, speed, distance, and mass.
Step 3: Determine the nature of each quantity: Displacement has both magnitude and direction (vector), while speed, distance, and mass only have magnitude (scalar).
Step 4: Conclude that displacement is the only vector quantity among the options.
