The main difference between speed and velocity involves direction.
The main difference between speed and velocity involves direction. Velocity involves an object moving in a particular direction.
The difference between speed and velocity is that velocity is speed with a direction vector associated with it. It's that direction vector that makes them different.Speed is displacement (distance traveled) per unit time. Velocity is displacement (distance traveled) per unit time in a given direction. The "directionality" associated with velocity makes it a vector quantity, while speed is a scalar quantity.The main difference between them in everyday life is that "speed" is usually usedproperly, but "velocity" is usually used Improperly.-- "30 miles per hour" is a speed-- "30 miles per hour north" is a velocity-- "30 miles per hour north" and "30 miles per hour west" are the same speed but different velocities.
yes.... A2: displacement is for of a number where a vector has direction. Kind of the difference in speed and velocity but the main difference in this is velocity can be negative.

Velocity includes the information on what direction the speed is pointing. 60 mph north and 50 mph north are different velocities. 60 mph north and 60 mph west are also different velocities. Speed doesn't care what direction it's going. 60 mph north and 60 mph west are the same speed. 60 mph 50 mph are different speeds.
