Answer:

Scalar Quantity

Explanation:

Scalar Quantity

Quantity whose magnitude alone is sufficient to represent it. We can also say that it is an amount that has magnitude but no direction. For example, temperature and volume are scalar quantities.

For this case we have the potential energy and it is defined by the equation:

[tex]E_{p}=m*g*h\\ where:\\m =mass [kg]\\g = gravity [m/s^2]\\h = height [m]\\[/tex]

The above equation only shows us one magnitude, it has no direction, therefore it is a scalar quantity.
