Well, picture this: A canoe moving east through the water at 3 miles per hour hits the pier, and bounces off of it. About an hour later, a battleship moving east through the water at 3 miles per hour hits the pier, keeps right on going, and demolishes the entire pier.
What's the difference ? Both craft had the same velocity ... 3 miles per hour eastward. But each one had different momentum. The difference between velocity and momentum is that momentum also depends on the mass of the object, as well as its velocity.
Momentum of an object is (mass) multiplied by (velocity).
Velocity is speed with direction
The technical difference is that speed has no direction but velocity has one.
muzzle velocity is the velocity of bullet and recoil velocity is the velocity of gun.
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.
The velocity of an object has two attributes, 1. its magnitude and 2. its direction. The difference betwen the velocity and the magnitude of the velocity is the direction!

Velocity includes direction. And it's the 'difference', not the 'distance'.
velocity is speed with direction; velocity is a vector and speed is a scalar
The main difference between speed and velocity involves direction.
angular momentum and angular velocity
i think these are different.
Velocity also includes direction.
The difference between an object's speed and an object's velocity is that the object's speed is how fast it is going, and the object's velocity is how many units of speed the object has traveled.
