work = displacement x force
force is vector and displacement is vector

The measurement of the medium’s temperature is a scalar quantity; the measurement of the increase or decrease in the medium’s temperature is a vector quantity.

Actually, there is no ans cause everything is scaler but work can still be manageable to a certain extent since it also entails force in relation wih the distance covered while the rest are absolutely scaler (no exception)
