One example problem of speed and velocity would be 'What is the speed of a sailboat traveling 100 meters in 180 seconds?' You can use a calculator to solve these types of problems.

What is an example of a velocity word problem?

These problems are concerned with speed and distance.One example of a velocity word problem could be; "If a dolphin swims at 2.6 miles per hour, how far will it have traveled in 40 minutes?".


What is an example of the difference between speed and velocity?

Speed is what it is: speed. Velocity is speed in a given direction, a vector quantity.


What is an objects velocity?

An object's velocity is it's speed plus direction. example: 55mph south Hope this helps:)


What is an Example of constant velocity?

constant velocity means the speed and direction are the same.


What is one example of velocity?

One example of Velocity is that if you are running in the same direction, your speed and velocity is the same. But if you are running AROUND the track, your speed is the same but your velocity is changing.


What is speed in calculus?

Speed is an example of a rate of change. It is specifically the rate of change of distance over time.In calculus, speed is the absolute value of velocity. Velocity measures both speed and direction, while speed only measures speed. For example, if a car is driving backward with a speed of 90km/h, its velocity would be -90km/h because "backward" indicates a "negative" velocity.


Does speed change with velocity?

If the velocity changes, the speed may, or may not, change. The velocity can be thought of as having two components: a speed, and a direction. It is possible to change only the direction, for example, when an object moves in a circle at a constant speed. In this case, the velocity changes, but the speed does not.


What is nature of velocity in constant speed?

Velocity magnitude is unchanging at constant speed. The direction might change (velocity is a vector with both size (speed) and direction) if , for example, you are driving around a curve at a constant speed.


What is th meaning of velocity?

velocity means a speed and direction for example: if you say your driving 60mph then you are giving a speed but if you say your driving 60mph south then your giving a velocity.


What is an example of constant speed with changing velocity?

Velocity is a vector, thus it has a direction. Therefore, you can change the velocity by changing direction. A great example of this is a ball on a string spinning at a constant speed, but it is continually changing direction, therefore, even though the speed is constant the velocity changes at every instant.


What is speed that does not change - called?

constant


What is 5 miles per hour an example of?
