Question
Pick out the two scalar quantities in the following list: force, angular momentum, work, current, linear momentum, electric field, average velocity, magnetic moment, relative velocity.
✓

Answer

Both Work and current are scalar quantities.Work done is given by the dot product of force and displacement.
W = (F.S)
Since the dot product of two quantities is always a scalar, therefore work is a scalar physical quantity.
Current is described only by its magnitude. Its direction is not taken into account. Hence, it is a scalar quantity.
