A physical quantity is a property of a physical system that can be measured and expressed numerically along with a unit of measurement. Physical quantities are classified into two main categories: 1. **Scalar Quantities**: These quantities have only magnitude and do not have a direction. Examples include mass, temperature, time, and length. 2. **Vector Quantities**: These quantities have both magnitude and direction. Examples include force, velocity, and displacement.
