velocity is just a general term for speed (it could be average velocity or instantaneous velocity). Instantaneous velocity/speed (same thing) is the speed at that second. If you are familiar with calculus, it is the derivative of the position graph.
Whereas average velocity is how fast the object is going in, for example, 1 hour, it is the speed that is maintained the whole hour (or the average)
Instantaneous would be that at the second, at for example t=1.425, the speed is 24m/h . something along those lines

∙ 14y agoThe instantaneous rate is the rate at a particular moment in the reaction (point of interest) and the average reaction rate is the appearance of a product over a particular time interval.

∙ 14y agothe instantaneous velocity or speed is the speed a body travels at a particular and average velocity is the total distance an object

∙ 11y agotell me the full answer of that question plz

∙ 12y agoAverage velocity is the average of the velocty of entire motion where as instantaneous velocity is the velocity at an instant, it may be a function of time or displacement.

How is velocity same from instantaneous speed?
Instantaneous speed is the magnitude of the velocity. Velocity also states the [direction] of the speed.
If the instantaneous velocity of an object remains constand can its instantaneous speed change?
No. Speed can remain constant when velocity changes, but velocity can't remain constant when speed changes.
Is a car's speedometer show instantaneous speed average speed or velocity?
It shows instantaneous speed.
What is the difference between instantaneous velocity and instantaneous speed?
Speed, instantaneous or not, is a term used for how fast an object travels. Velocity, instantaneous or not, is a term used for how fast an object travels in a particular direction.
At a given moment in time instantaneous speed can be thought of as the magnitude of instantaneous what?
velocity

Instantaneous speed is the magnitude of the velocity. Velocity also states the [direction] of the speed.
What is instantaneous velocity or speed?
It is the speed or velocity at a particular instant.
Does light speed accelerate or is it instantaneous velocity?
Instantaneous.
If the instantaneous velocity of an object remains constand can its instantaneous speed change?
No. Speed can remain constant when velocity changes, but velocity can't remain constant when speed changes.

It shows instantaneous speed.
What is the difference between instantaneous velocity and instantaneous speed?
Speed, instantaneous or not, is a term used for how fast an object travels. Velocity, instantaneous or not, is a term used for how fast an object travels in a particular direction.
The rate of change in position at a given point in time?
The rate of change in position at a given point in time is instantaneous speed, instantaneous velocity.
Compare and contrast speed and acceleration?
-- "Speed" is the rate at which distance changes. -- "Velocity" is speed along with the direction of motion. -- "Acceleration" is the rate at which velocity changes, including the direction of the change.
At a given moment in time instantaneous speed can be thought of as the magnitude of instantaneous what?

What is Speed at a particular instant in time is?
That is called the instantaneous speed.
