Answer

D
  1. A scalar quantity is a physical quantity that has only magnitude and no direction.
    • Force, displacement, and velocity are all vector quantities because they have both magnitude and direction.
    • Mass has only magnitude (e.g., 5 kg) and no associated direction.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

D. Mass
