No, kinetic energy is a scalar quantity, not a vector. It only has magnitude and no direction.
The kinetic energy of an object is defined as the energy it possesses due to its motion. It is a scalar quantity that depends only on the mass of the object and its speed, regardless of the direction in which it is moving. This is because kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the speed of the object, which is a scalar quantity.
No, mass and energy are not scalars. Mass is a scalar quantity while energy is a scalar quantity.
No, kinetic energy is a scalar quantity. It only has magnitude and no direction associated with it. The formula for kinetic energy is ( KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 ), where m is the mass of the object and v is its velocity.
No, mechanical energy is a scalar quantity. It represents the sum of potential and kinetic energy in a system, without direction.

A scalar quantity is a quantity that has only a magnitude value, whereas a vector quantity is a quantity with magnitude and a direction. Now when looking at speed vs. velocity, we know that the speed of an object can either be larger in magnitude or smaller in magnitude compared to a velocity where the object can be going in a specific magnitude but heading West, East, or North. This concept can be applied to temperatures. Temperature is a scalar quantity because it reveals the magnitude of the kinetic energy within that environment or object. If we look even deeper, kinetic energy or just energy is a scalar quantity, energy being the capacity to do work.

No, air temperature is a scalar quantity because it has magnitude only and no direction associated with it. It is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in the air, without any specific direction.
Potential energy is a scalar quantity. Energy is the sum of a scalar part and a vector part. Energy W is the product of velocity V and momentum P; W = [c+V]P =[ -V.P + cP]. The Potential energy is the scalar energy -V.P=-vmv = -mv^2.Physicists consider energy a scalar quantity, but that is incorrect, energy is a Quaternion quantity, a scalar and a vector . The vector energy is the "Dark Energy" is hidden in plain sight, cP.
Efficiency is a scalar quantity because it can increase in magnitude but does not have any particular direction. :)
Gravitational potential energy is a scalar quantity. It only depends on the height of an object above a reference point and does not have a direction associated with it.
A vector has magnitude and direction. A scalar has magnitude only. A car moving 60 mph North has a specific amouunt of kinetic energy, according to the formula KE = 1/2 * mass * velocity squared. If the car is moving 60 mph South is the KE the same?? ..Yes! Energy is a scalar! Nothing squared is a vector!! Length has direction. area does not
Yes.
