Which of the following is not a vector quantity?
- AVelocity
- BTorque
- CDisplacement
- DSpeed
- ENone of the above/More than one of the above
Show answer and explanation

Speed is a scalar quantity having only magnitude, with no specified direction.
Velocity, displacement and torque are vector quantities, possessing both magnitude and direction.
Hence speed is the odd one out, as it lacks a directional component.
