The scientific answer is that velocity is a vector and speed is a scalar, or velocity has a magnitude and a direction, while speed only has a magnitude.
The English translation is, velocity is a mathematical represention of both how fast you are going, and where you are going (10 m/s in the x dierection). Speed is just how fast you are going (the car was going 55 mph).
distance/velocity = time
Velocity includes direction. And it's the 'difference', not the 'distance'.
velocity is a distance travelled per sec
The car's average velocity for one complete lap is zero, because the distance betweenits starting and ending points is zero. But at each instant, its velocity is given by its speedand the direction it's moving at that time.
To find the change in velocity in a given scenario, subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity. The change in velocity is the difference between the two velocities.
Speed is what it is: speed. Velocity is speed in a given direction, a vector quantity.
Speed is just a number; velocity includes information about the direction. In physical terms, speed is a scalar, whereas velocity is a vector.
Yes, it is possible. If you are moving at a constant velocity, you will feel no acceleration or deceleration. In contrast, if you are not moving at all, you will feel stationary with no change in velocity.
The main difference between speed and velocity is that speed is a scalar quantity, representing only magnitude, while velocity is a vector quantity, representing both magnitude and direction. Speed describes how fast an object is moving, while velocity describes the rate of change of an object's position in a particular direction.
Speed is exactly like velocity, except velocity has a fixed direction. So speed would be 50mph, whereas velocity would be 50mph NE
Speed is the rate of change in distance, whereas velocity is speed and direction of travel. Acceleration is the change in velocity (including direction).
Speed is just a number; velocity includes information about the direction. In physical terms, speed is a scalar, whereas velocity is a vector.
