What are some examples when speed remains constant but the velocity changes?

Answer 1

Velocity is a vector; velocity tells you how fast something is traveling (speed),

and its direction. A change in velocity could indicate a change in direction or

speed, or both.

Answer 2

Imagine you are driving in your car on a straight, flat highway. Neglect curvature of the earth. You set the cruise control and stay in your lane without having to steer. Now you are traveling at a constant speed in a constant direction. This is an example of constant velocity.

Answer 3

Speed:

-- 88 feet per second

-- 30 miles per hour

-- 1 meter per minute

Velocity:

-- 88 feet per second north

-- 30 miles per hour east

-- 1 meter per minute up

=============================

Three Equal Speeds, Three Different Velocities:

-- 60 miles per hour north

-- 1,440 miles per day west

-- 1 mile per minute down
