What is Sam like?
 
What is Sam like? 

Can we use this question to learn about Sam �s personality? or  his physical appearance? Or both of them possible?

This is a trouble for me for a while.

Thanks a lot in advance.

For asking about physical appearance say:What does Sam look like?
For asking about personality you say: What is Sam like?

Remember BE LIKE is used for PERSONALITY, whereas LOOK LIKE for appearance. Therefore, "what is Sam like?" is used to talk about his personality.
