Solution

The vector quantities from the list you provided are:

  1. Velocity: A vector quantity as it has both magnitude (speed) and direction.
  2. Force: A vector quantity because it has both magnitude (amount of force) and direction.
  3. Displacement: A vector quantity as it has both magnitude (distance) and direction.
  4. Gravity: A vector quantity as it has both magnitude (force) and direction (towards the center of the earth).

The scalar quantities from your list are:

  1. Speed: A scalar quantity as it only has magnitude (how fast an object is moving) but no direction.
  2. Distance: A scalar quantity as it only has magnitude (how much ground an object has covered) but no direction.
