Is velocity for waves different than speed?
Speed and velocity are never the same thing.Velocity means 'speed' AND the direction it's going.
How is speed of a body related its velocity?
Part of every velocity is a speed. Speed is the size of the velocity.But the velocity also has a direction, which the speed doesn't.'30 mph North' and '30 mph West' are the same speed but different velocity.
Is 2 vehicles having different speed but same distance have same velocities?
No. Same velocity means same speed and same direction.
What is the definition of velocity and how is it different from speed?
Velocity tells the speed and also the direction. "30 miles per hour north" and "30 miles per hour west" are the same speed but different velocities.
How is velocity different that speed?
Velocity is a vector Speed is a scaler
Can two objects have a different speed but same velocity?
No. Speed is the magnitude of the velocity vector. If velocities are the same, their magnitudes are the same, which is another way of saying that the speeds are the same.It can work the other way around, however ... same speed but different velocities, meaning same speed in different directions.
Is velocity for waves different than speed?
Speed and velocity are never the same thing.Velocity means 'speed' AND the direction it's going.
Do two skaters traveling in different directions at the same speed have the same velocity?
No. Velocity is the combination of a speed and its direction. In order fortwo objects to have the same velocity, they must be moving at the samespeed, and in the same direction.
Why the units of velocity and speed are same?
because they measure different aspects of the same thing, velocity also has direction but speed lacks direction. otherwise they are the same.
How speed affect the velocity?
Different words for same thing
Two bicycle riders have the same speed so do they have the same velocity please explain?
Not necessarily. Velocity is made up of speed and direction, so if they go in different directions, their velocity won't be the same.

No. Speed is the magnitude of the velocity vector. If velocities are the same, their magnitudes are the same, which is another way of saying that the speeds are the same.It can work the other way around, however ... same speed but different velocities, meaning same speed in different directions.
Can the speed of a body change if its velocity is changed?
Simly stated, velocity is speed in a defined direction. If you travel 5mph north, the speed is the same as if you travel 5mph east, but the velocity is different.
Is 2 vehicles having different speed but same distance have same velocities?
No. Same velocity means same speed and same direction.
Does a speedmeter give instantaneous speed or velocity?
Velocity is a vector quantity, so a different direction makes a different velocity. Speed is a scalar quantity, where direction makes no difference. Since a speedometer reads the same regardless of direction of motion, it is providing speed, not velocity.
What is the diffrerence between speed and velocity?
Velocity is speed plus its direction. -- "30 mph" is a speed. -- "30 mph north" is a velocity. -- "30 mph east" and "30 mph south" are the same speed but different velocities.
