Velocity tells us the speed of an object in a specific direction. It is a vector quantity that includes both magnitude (speed) and direction. It helps us understand how an object is moving and how its motion may change over time.

How can you figure out velocity?

You check out the speed and direction, and times them together, and it will tell you the velocity of the object.


What two things velocity tell us about an object's motion?

Velocity tells us the speed of an object's motion as well as its direction of movement.


What does a velocity-time graph tell us?

How the speed of something changes over time.


What does the speed and directiion of and object motion tell us?

The speed and direction of an object is its velocity.


What two things does velocity tell about an objects motion?

Velocity tells us the speed at which an object is moving and the direction in which it is moving.


Is 35km per hour a speed or velocity?

35 km per hour is a speed.If you also tell us what direction it's going, then it's a velocity.


Does velocity have to be represented by north east etc?

If you call it "velocity" then you have to tell what direction it points.If you only tell how fast it is but you don't tell the direction, then it's "speed", not velocity.


Does speed tell us what direction an object is moving?

Speed is a scalar quantity and has only magnitude and not direction. Hence, speed cannot tell us what direction an object is moving. However, velocity which is the vector equivalent of speed, can tell us the direction.


How can you tell an object has moved?

Because of its velocity (velocity is the rate of change of position), an object will move. An object is stationary if it has no velocity because it will not be able to move without velocity. Therefore, you can tell that an object has moved because of velocity.


Is acceleration the same as velocity?

No, acceleration is not the same as velocity. Velocity is the rate of change of an object's position, while acceleration is the rate of change of an object's velocity. Velocity tells us how fast an object is moving and in what direction, while acceleration tells us how quickly an object's velocity is changing.


How can astronomers tell what a distant object's velocity?

By using the habo space telescle to detect the object's velocity


When an arrow is used to show velocity what does the arrow tell you?

The arrow's direction indicates the velocity's direction, while the arrow's length represents the velocity's magnitude.
