How to approach it
Predict from the governing principle before looking for a matching option. Then reject alternatives by checking direction, units, limiting behaviour or the physical meaning of each statement.

The correct choice is D: velocity and weight
- 2
A and C each pair a scalar with a vector, which is the trap: distance and mass have no direction. B is two scalars. Only D is a vector twice over.
