You can get speed or velocity by dividing distance moved, by the time it takes to move that distance.
velocity = distance / time There are also some formulae involving acceleration; for example, in the case of constant acceleration: velocity = initial velocity + acceleration x time If the acceleration is not constant, an integral is used instead.
There are different formulae for calculating these variables which depend on what information is available.
Such formulae are usually given for acceleration; NOT for speed. The relevant formula is:a = dv/dt That means, acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, with respect to time. For constant acceleration (or for short time intervals), you can also write this as: a = delta v / delta t (change in velocity divided by the time interval)
Speed in a given direction is velocity.
SPEED has the speed only; while VELOCITY has the direction and the speed.
Part of every velocity is a speed. Speed is the size of the velocity.But the velocity also has a direction, which the speed doesn't.'30 mph North' and '30 mph West' are the same speed but different velocity.
Speed in a given direction is called velocity.
Velocity is speed and direction
Velocity is speed with a direction
It is the speed or velocity at a particular instant.
Speed is a scalar, velocity is a vector. In other words, when the direction of the speed is relevant, it is called a velocity.
