text: Kinetic energy is a scalar quantity; it has only magnitude and does not have any direction.
text: Kinetic energy is scalar, or non-directional, in nature - it is the TOTAL energy , of all types, in all directions.
text: However, unlike acceleration, momentum, and velocity, kinetic energy is a scalar quantity.
text: Kinetic energy is a scalar quantity; it does not have a direction.
text: Kinetic energy is a scalar quantity, i.e., it has only magnitude but no direction.
text: Kinetic energy is a scalar quantity - it has no direction in space, and kinetic energies combine like "regular numbers.
text: The fact that kinetic energy is scalar, unlike linear momentum which is a vector, and hence easier to work with did not escape the attention of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz.
