Want this question answered?
It is called "speed." If the direction is also included, the measurement is "velocity."
distance covered by the object per unit time is the speed of the object.
Motion is when an object changes its direction. Speed is how fast something is moving. Hope that helps!!
Assuming that there is no velocity in the horizontal direction, then the velocity at that instant is zero.
velocity
speed How fast in which direction is velocity.
speed How fast in which direction is velocity.
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.
they are different words with the same meaning.
velocity (distance/time)

A vector is used to represent direction and magnitude of speed. Velocity is the speed of an object and a specification of its direction of motion. Speed describes only how fast an object is moving, whereas velocity gives both how fast and in what direction the object is moving. Therefore a vector can be used to represent a velocity. The term "resultant velocity" implies a change in velocity which can be determined using vector analysis.
Assuming that there is no velocity in the horizontal direction, then the velocity at that instant is zero.
Average speed and instantaneous speed are both measurements of the speed of an object. The instantaneous speed measures how fast the object is going at a particular moment, while average speed shows how fast the object was moving in total over time.
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.
