title "Vectors vs scalars"
set V "Vectors"
set S "Scalars"
only "V" "Magnitude and direction; e.g. displacement, velocity, force; added head-to-tail"
only "S" "Magnitude only; e.g. distance, speed, mass, energy; added arithmetically"
intersect "V,S" "Physical quantities; have a magnitude with units; can be measured"
