How are speed and velocity different what the unis used?

Velocity is the measure of speed in a given direction. Although the SI measurement units for both are metres per second, there must be an explicit or implied direction for velocity.


What is a measure of both the speed and direction of a moving object?

velocity


What is the measure of both the speed and direction of a moving object?

velocity


Velocity is a measure of both an object's speed and its what?

Direction. Velocity is a vector quantity. Vectors have a scalar size and a vector direction.


What describes both speed and direction?

Velocity describes both the speed and direction an object is moving.


Does a speedometer both measure speed and velocity?

No. A speedometer only measures speed. You also need a position sensor or direction vector coupled with the speedometer in order to know velocity, because velocity includes direction.


Does velocity depends on both speed and direction?

Yes. Velocity depends on both speed and direction.


Why is it necessary to have two units to measure speed?

Speed, or velocity, is the measure of how long it takes to travel from one point to another. This is simplified to distance/time, d/t, km/h, miles/hour, meters/second, etc. "Distance"- how far you go, and "Time"- how long it takes, are both nessecary to measure speed because speed is a value that measures (or defines) one in relation to the other.


Do velocity describe both speed and time?

No. Velocity states both speed and direction.Time gets involved in calculating the speed.


How do you get velocity when time in seconds is 0.1 and distance is 8?

velocity=distance/time for uniform velocity. You need units for both the time and the distance to get a correct answer. Example: the speed limit is 65 miles/hour


20 miles per hour north is an example of?

This measure is an example of velocity, which includes both a speed and a direction.


Velocity describes both?

speed and direction
