What else can I help you with?
How would you differentiate between speed and velocity?
Speed is the magnitude of distance travelled per unit time, whereas velocity depends on the magnitude of distance travelled as well as the direction of motion. Speed is a scalar quantity, velocity is a vector. Speed cannot be negative, velocity can be negative. Average speed of an object after travelling a certain distance is always non-zero, but for velocity the average velocity can be zero (this follows from the previous idea).
How is speed of a body related its velocity?
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.
Differentiate speed and velocity?
speed is the distance traveled per unit time, and it is the rate at which something happens; "the project advanced with gratifying speed". While velocity is the rate of speed with which something happens; rapidity of action or reaction.Additional answerI don't understand any of the above. Speed is the rate that something moves, but without a particular direction. Velocity is the speed in a particular direction. Velocity is a scientific quantity, really. You probably wouldn't make this distinction in eveyday life.
Can an object have constant velocity and but variable speed?
No, an object cannot have constant velocity and variable speed. Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed and direction. If the object's velocity is constant, then its speed must also be constant.
Can particle have zero speed and non zero velocity?
No, a particle cannot have zero speed and non-zero velocity simultaneously. Speed is the magnitude of velocity and if speed is zero, then velocity must also be zero.
How would you differentiate speed time distance and velocity?
Velocity is a vector: it has a direction. The others are all scalars. The dimensions of the scalars are Speed : [LT-1] Time: [T] Distance: [L]

What is speed in a given direction is called?
Speed in a given direction is velocity.
Are speed and velocity different?
SPEED has the speed only; while VELOCITY has the direction and the speed.

What is speed in a given direction?
Speed in a given direction is called velocity.
How do you find speed if you know the velocity?
Velocity is speed and direction
What is the difference betweenn speed and velocity?
Velocity is speed with a direction
What is instantaneous velocity or speed?
It is the speed or velocity at a particular instant.
How are speed and velocity diffrent?
Speed is a scalar, velocity is a vector. In other words, when the direction of the speed is relevant, it is called a velocity.

The speed of an object and the direction of its motion?
the object's 'velocity'
