Pressure does not have direction.

Pressure is a scalar because it doesn't show the direction.

Whenever pressure is applied on any body then it does not move in specific direction that's why it does not have any specific direction.

As we know from scalar define scalar is a qnty that have only magnitude. Here others have magnitude as well as direction except pressure. Therefore pressure is the correct option.

Scalar has only magnitude no direction.

Well you don't need to worry if pressure has no direction as long as you know that force, acceleration and velocity have magnitude and direction and as such are vector quantities which makes pressure the odd one out.

Accepted pressure all are vector quantity therefore pressure is scalar.
Aravind said:

Pressure don't have direction.

When we mention the pressure it has no demand of direction. So it is a scalar quantity?

Pressure is the defined through only magnitude.
