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.

How do two objects moving at the same speed have different velocities?

Velocity is a vector; to specify velocity, you indicate a speed (a magnitude), and a direction. If two objects move in different directions, their velocities will be different, even if their speeds are the same.Velocity is a vector; to specify velocity, you indicate a speed (a magnitude), and a direction.

Is it true two objects with the same mass will always have the same momentum?

No, two objects with the same mass will not always have the same momentum. Momentum is a vector quantity that depends on both mass and velocity. If the objects are moving at different speeds, they will have different momenta even if they have the same mass.


How do you know when something has the same velocity and when it doesnt?

By definition, it would have the same speed and direction as the compared object. This can be evidenced by the two objects having an unchanging spatial relationship: i.e. the objects remain the same direction and distance from each other.

Is escape velocity same for all objects?

Yes. It is different for different planets etc. Escape velocity on earth is different than escape velocity on Jupiter.


If two objects have the same velocity do they have the same momentum?

No, because momentum depends on velocity and mass so they may have the same velocity but if they have different masses then they will have different momenta. (momenta is the plural form of momentum.)


What is the speed of most objects and what it depend on?

Different objects can have different speeds; also, the same object can have one speed now, and a different speed later.


Do different shaped objects fall at different speeds with the same weight?

In a vacuum, all objects fall at the same speed regardless of shape or weight due to gravity exerting the same force on them. However, in the presence of air resistance, objects with different shapes will fall at different speeds due to variations in air resistance.


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.


Do objects travling the same speed have the same velocity?

Not necessarily. "To have the same velocity" means to have the same speed AND move in the same direction. A car driving north at 30 miles per hour and another one driving south at 30 miles per hour have the same speed but different velocities.


Is terminal velocity the same speed for any weight?

Terminal velocity for a feather will be considerably lower than the terminal velocity of a bullet. The size and shape of the object will play an important role. While objects dropped from a given height in a vacuum will fall to earth at the same velocity, the resistance caused by atmosphere will be different for different objects.
