How to pronounce “scalars” in English

Mathematically, we say that the gravitational field G is equal to the negative gradient of V.- So Lagrange had found a way to switch the problem back and forth between one of vectors and one of scalars.And while adding up vectors is hard, adding scalars is a piece of cake.

He really developed tensors.Those of you who aren't with a technical background, scalars are numbers and stuff, and vectors are a number with a direction like an arrow,and tensors just generalize that a little bit more.

And just by juxtaposing things, you create lists.So here we have a bunch of numbers, three scalars, and a vector.And you can see the structure.
