Velocity is a vector which incorporates both speed (a scalar) and direction. So the speed (distance divided by time) must increase if the velocity increases as the direction (an angular measurement) does not affect the absolute value of the vector.

What is an increase in velocity called?
an increase in speed - velocity is another word for speed
What has to happen to a car's acceleration and velocity for a car's speed to increase and have a positive acceleration?
The velocity has to increase in a positive direction. The increase in velocity in a positive direction is a positive acceleration.
When acceleration and velocity are in the same direction the speed will?
In that case, the speed will increase.
How are velocity and acceleration different?
acceleration is the increase of speed in a moving object. velocity is the speed and direction of a moving object.
What happens when you increase the velocity of the vehicle?
Your speed increases

Why velocity of flow will decrease with increase in peripheral speed of francis turbine?
the peripheral velocity of the turbine is the around velocity. the increase in the velocity of the peripheral will decrease the velocity of the flow towards the turbine
What happens when you increase the velocity of the vehicle?
Your speed increases
Will acceleration only speed up an object?
In popular usage, "acceleration" means an increase in speed. In physics, any change in velocity is called an "acceleration".In popular usage, "acceleration" means an increase in speed.

Does kinetic energy increase with speed and time?
Time is not a factor, speed is velocity and velocity equates to kinetic energy. E=Mass * Velocity squared.
How are acceleration and speed alike?
They are not alike but they are related. A positive acceleration means an increase in velocity (speed). A negative acceleration means a decrease in velocity. Velocity (speed) has the dimensions of distance / time. Acceleration has the dimensions of distance/time2 or velocity/time.
Is it possible for the speed to increase at the same time the velocity decreases?
Velocity being a vector, it is tricky to say that "velocity increases or decreases". Its magnitude might decrease - but its magnitude is, precisely, the speed.
What are the types of speed?
Speed and velocity. Speed is when you travel in a straight line, whereas velocity is when there is a change of direction. There is of cause acceleration which is an increase in speed, but even so the above two still apply.
How does aircraft drag increase with speed?
Drag increases by the square of velocity increase, for example, tripling speed increases drag by a factor of nine!
