If a car is traveling at a constant speed but is going around a curve what can you say about the cars motion?
The velocity of the car in this case is changing (to specify velocity, you indicate a speed and a direction), therefore the car is accelerating.The velocity of the car in this case is changing (to specify velocity, you indicate a speed and a direction), therefore the car is accelerating.The velocity of the car in this case is changing (to specify velocity, you indicate a speed and a direction), therefore the car is accelerating.The velocity of the car in this case is changing (to specify velocity, you indicate a speed and a direction), therefore the car is accelerating.
How is velocity different that speed?
Velocity is a vector Speed is a scaler
Does the reading of the speedometer of a car show the speed or velocity of the car?
The speed of the car. The speed-o-meter only shows a magnitude ( or a number ) and to tell the velocity of a car it would have to give that speed some direction. Since the speedometer assigns no direction to the car, the number assigned as the speed of the car cannot be the velocity of the car.
Does the reading of a speedo meter of a car show the speed or velocity of a car?
Just the speed of the car.
What do you need to know to determine the velocity of a moving object?
Velocity means speed and direction. If one car was travelling 60mph northwards and one car was travelling 60mph southwards, they would both have the same speed but they would have different velocities. Acceleration means a change in velocity; this could be a change in speed or direction or both.
What makes velocity different from speed?
Velocity includes direction. For example, "the car is driving 100 km/h" refers to speed, whereas, "the car is driving 100 km/h [North]" is velocity

Are speed and velocity different?
SPEED has the speed only; while VELOCITY has the direction and the speed.
If car travelling in a large circle passes by a motorcycle that is travelling in a straight line from North to South Both of their speedometers read 10 m s Which statement below is true?
You didn't give me any statements. A. The car and the motorcycle have the same speed, but different velocities. B. The car and the motorcycle have the same velocity, but different speeds. C. The car and the motorcycle have the same speed and velocity. D. The car and motorcycle have different speed and different velocity. Please help me out! Reno/Yes those are the statements.

How is velocity different from average speeed?
Velocity is speed and its direction. Average velocity is average speed and its direction.

How do you find the velocity form the speed of a car?
Velocity means speed and direction. So if you know the speed, all you need to add is the direction of motion and you will have the velocity.
Is velocity speed?
As used in physics, the two are different. Speed is a scalar, velocity a vector.
What is the velocity of car light?
The velocity of light coming from a cars lights will be the speed of light C in the substance in front of the lights. It wont be the speed of light+the speed of the car however.
