Velocity is how high something goes like if you throw a Baseball up.
Distance is how far you throw thatbaseball
Velocity is the rate of change of distance with time, acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.
the distance will be equal to the time multiplied by a factor which is the speed.
average velocity is the displacement over time while instantaneous velocity refers to the velocity of an object at one point or at as pecific point of time. *displacement is the difference between the initial position and the final position of an object. (distance 2 - distance 1)
Escape velocity is the velocity that an object needs in order to reach infinite distance, wherein the force will equal to zero. Orbital velocity is the velocity of an object so it can stay in orbit.
speed is a scalar quantity ie it has no directions...........whereas velocity is a vector quantity ie it has directions...................Also speed has distance n velocity has displacement
Velocity includes direction. And it's the 'difference', not the 'distance'.
velocity is a distance travelled per sec
Velocity is the rate of change of distance with time, acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.
Velocity is distance divided by time. So the value of the velocity-time plot at any point in time will be the slope of the distance-time plot at that point in time.
the distance will be equal to the time multiplied by a factor which is the speed.
Distance covred in unit time is called speed
Speed is the rate of change in distance, whereas velocity is speed and direction of travel. Acceleration is the change in velocity (including direction).
Yes. The first is a speed (or velocity), the second is a distance.

http://wiki.answers.com/Q/The_difference_of_speed_and_velocity" The difference between speed and velocity is that speed is a scalar quantity(that have only magnitude) and velocity is a vector quantity(that have both magnitude and direction).
