The dual of a pseudovector is an anti-symmetric tensors of rank 2 (and vice versa). en.wikipedia.org

In 3-space, quantities which are described by a pseudovector are in fact anti-symmetric tensors of rank 2, which are invariant under inversion. en.wikipedia.org

Curvilinear coordinates are often used to define the location or distribution of physical quantities which may be, for example, scalars, vectors, or tensors. en.wikipedia.org

For example, when mere scalars proved awkward for understanding forces, first vectors, then tensors, were invented. 3. en.wikipedia.org
