Here are some examples of scalars:
* Temperature: It tells you how hot or cold something is, but not which direction the heat is flowing.
* Speed: It tells you how fast something is moving, but not in which direction.
* Mass: It tells you how much matter an object contains, but not where it is located.
* Time: It tells you how long something takes, but not in what direction time is flowing.
In contrast, quantities that have both magnitude and direction are called vectors.
