Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
No, gravity is not a scalar quantity. It is a vector quantity. As we know, the scalar quantity only possesses magnitude, not direction, but gravity possesses both magnitudes and direction. So, as gravity ‘g’ possesses magnitude and direction, gravity is a force attractive in nature.
The correct statement would be that gravity is a vector quantity.
