Why is it important for an airplane pilot to know the wind velocity and not just the wind speed?

Perhaps by "velocity" you're referring to the wind "vector," i.e., speed and direction. If so, the answer is simple: The wind speed alone is little help when calculating aircraft course. A pilot also needs to know the direction from which the wind is coming in order to accurately calculate intended course and speed.

A car accelerate uniformly from 6.6 m s in 6.5 seconds whats the distance the car travels during that time?

Not enough information. You also need to know how much the acceleration is. Once you know that, calculate the final speed, then calculate the average speed as (initial speed + final speed) / 2, and multiply that by the time to get the distance.


When is it most important to know the speed of memory?

It is the speed of your processor, that you need to know. It would be the size of your memory that is important. For both of those things, it is important to know them when you have a particular piece of software to run or work to be done that needs a minimum level of processor speed and memory size to work properly.
