A phasor is subset of vectors; Also known as rotating vector, hence we can say they are almost same.
Going in detail, Phasors are of two types : Scalar phasor & Vector Phasor.
Scalar phasor contains phase & amplitude information.
Vector phasor contains phase, magnitude & direction information.
While Vectors contain magnitude & direction, It contains no phase information.
One more difference is; Phasor is time independent, while vectors are time dependent.Are you sure? This action cannot be undone.
