Speed is a measure of the amount of distance you travel in a given time: speed = distance / time.
Velocity is a 'vector' quantity - it has magnitude (size) like speed but also direction.
Similarly, displacement is the vector analogue of distance - it records not only how far you've travelled but in what direction you've moved as well.
Thus if you want to know how far in a particular direction you go in a given time you check velocity = displacement / time

What is relation between displacement and time?
Velocity is the displacement per unit time. V =dx/dt Note velocity and displacement are vectors and have direction.
Is angular displacement and angular velocity the same?
no, velocity=displacement/time
What is the relationship between displacement and velocity?
velocity = displacement / time taken
Is velocity a derived unit?
Velocity is displacement per unit time. Therefore the units of velocity are derived units (ms-1)
Calculated using displacement divided by time?
Velocity is displacement/time.
What is relation between displacement and time?
Velocity is the displacement per unit time. V =dx/dt Note velocity and displacement are vectors and have direction.
Give a scientific word for displacement per unit time?
velocity.
Is angular displacement and angular velocity the same?
no, velocity=displacement/time
What is the relationship between displacement and velocity?
velocity = displacement / time taken
Is velocity a derived unit?
Velocity is displacement per unit time. Therefore the units of velocity are derived units (ms-1)
Calculated using displacement divided by time?
Velocity is displacement/time.
When displacement per unit time is tripled the velocity increases by what factor?
three times
Equation for calculating average velocity from displacement and time interval?
a=dv/dt average velocity = displacement divided by time take. so average velocity = displacement/time taken.
Identify the two pieces of information you need to know the velocity of an object?
Displacement and Time, displacement is the distance with a direction ( vector quantity) , and time . Displacement and velocity are directly proportional, while velocity and time are inversely proportional..( The faster, the less time it will take) Velocity = Displacement ____________ Time
If displacement is not changing as a function of time then what can we say about velocity?
If the displacement is not changing, the velocity is zero.
Does a steep slope on a displacement vs time graph indicates a very large velocity?
Yes it does. Velocity = Displacement / Time. On a graph of displacement vs time, the slope is the velocity. Steeper slope = higher velocity, flatter slope = lower velocity.
How a displacement of a vertically thrown ball varies with time?
It is converted to the ball's velocity or it is known as its velocity because displacement changes with time is known as velocity.
