I understand that static pressure is a scalar quantity as it acts equally in all directions, then by the same reasoning dynamic pressure should be a vector quantity as it only can be measured by opposing the flow.
I understand that the act of opposing the flow will instantly convert dynamic to static but I am asking in theory?
Thanks all the answers ( @Nikos M. ) and assistance , However I am still unclear as to why dynamic pressure (at any instant) is not thought of to be a force acting in a specific direction (perhaps vector is not the right term ?)
