velocity
distance covered by the object per unit time is the speed of the object.
speed How fast in which direction is velocity.
Speed is how fast something is going when the direction in which it is travelling is unimportant. Velocity is a measurement of the rate at which an object is changing its position. As such, in order to measure it, one must define both the speed at which an object is moving, and also the direction of movement.
How fast an object is travelling in a given direction.
Trains going by quickly.
How fast it is going in a certain direction
they are different words with the same meaning.
distance covered by the object per unit time is the speed of the object.
speed How fast in which direction is velocity.
speed How fast in which direction is velocity.
The equation for momentum is mass times velocity or P=mv It is formed my how massive an object is and how fast it is moving in any given direction.

This was the essential question on a homework assignment. Speed tells how fast an object is moving but it does not tell the direction. Velocity tells how fast an object is moving and it also tells the direction. When velocity is positive, the object is moving up. When velocity is negative, the object is moving down.
