Velocity having large magnitude makes it possible for us to get places in a hurry.
"Velocity" is not a difficult concept. It just means the speed of a moving object,
along with the direction in which it's moving.
Speed is easy to understand because we deal with it every day. But speed alone
leaves out some very important information from a full description of motion, because
it doesn't tell you anything about the direction. If you know the speed and the direction,
then you can tell where the object has moved to, after any amount of time.
So I guess you might say that your velocity is what determines where you can go
and how long it takes you to get there.

How does an increase in a streams velocity affect its discharge and carrying capacity?
When the discharge of a stream increases, so does it's velocity. When it decreases, so does the velocity.
What is the effect on force if the velocity changes from 5 mph to 10 miles per hour?
Velocity does not affect force.
Does increasing the mass or velocity have the most affect on an object's kinetic energy?
Generally, the velocity as it is squared, but I suppose if you had some titanic mass moving at a very slow velocity then it could be the mass.
What three things affect the frequency of a sound wave?
Velocity, temperature and pressure.
How do velocity and mass affect an objects kinetic energy?
The formula is: KE = (1/2) mv2
How does a streams gradient affect of velocity?
The steeper the gradient, the higher the velocity of flow.
Does the color of a laser affect the velocity of the light waves projected by the laser?
does the color of a lease affect the velocity of the light waves projected by the laser?
Does high velocity affect rate of change of velocity?
No. The rate of change of an object's velocity depends only on the forces acting on it.
Does pressure change affect velocity?
Yes, it can.
How do floods affect river velocity?
Increases it
Does vibration affect terminal velocity?
yes
v.Does high fluid velocity and low fluid velocity affect the value of Cd?
Yes
How velocity affect momentum?
if velocity increases, so does momentum. and vice versa momentum = mass x velocity increasing mass or velocity or both will increase momentum
Does friction affect speed or velocity?
Speed is a scalar (non-directional) representation of velocity. Friction affects the magnitude of both and the direction of velocity.
How does an increase in a streams velocity affect its discharge and carrying capacity?
When the discharge of a stream increases, so does it's velocity. When it decreases, so does the velocity.
Can velocity of electrones in outermost shell affect reactivity of an element?
I think no, as electrons move with uniform velocity.
How does air resistance affect fallig objects?
terminal velocity is the final maximum velocity of a falling object.
