Force may be defined as a push or pull that disturbs or tends to disturb the state of rest or of uniform motion of a body.

In other words, it is a push or pull that disturbs or tends to disturb the inertia of a body.

Force has a formula, F= ma,

where m=> mass of the body and a=> acceleration of the body.

As force is a product of a scalar(mass) and a vector(acceleration) it is a vector quantity.
