Velocity is distance divided by time. So the value of the velocity-time plot at any point in time will be the slope of the distance-time plot at that point in time.
Simply put, a velocity time graph is velocity (m/s) in the Y coordinate and time (s) in the X and a position time graph is distance (m) in the Y coordinate and time (s) in the X if you where to find the slope of a tangent on a distance time graph, it would give you the velocity whereas the slope on a velocity time graph would give you the acceleration.
Simple, velocity = distance by time ,which probably means distance = velocity X times.
Shortest distance is called displacement . displacement =average velocity / average time . It is a vector quantity both has magnitude and direction.But,distance is a scalar quantity having only magnitude.
Distance divided by velocity = time
velocity = distance/time
Velocity is the rate of change of distance with time, acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.
the distance will be equal to the time multiplied by a factor which is the speed.
Distance covred in unit time is called speed
average velocity is the displacement over time while instantaneous velocity refers to the velocity of an object at one point or at as pecific point of time. *displacement is the difference between the initial position and the final position of an object. (distance 2 - distance 1)
distance over time= speed displacement over time = velocity Difference between the two- distance and speed are scalar quantities (described by magnitude only) while displacement adn velocity are vector quantities (described by both magnitude and direction).

http://wiki.answers.com/Q/The_difference_of_speed_and_velocity" The difference between speed and velocity is that speed is a scalar quantity(that have only magnitude) and velocity is a vector quantity(that have both magnitude and direction).
Velocity (distance-time), Magnitude (volume) and Density (echo/harmonic) signatures differ.
Velocity is distance over time, Acceleration is velocity with a direction.
Velocity does depend on distance. Velocity = Distance/Time
Velocity = distance / unit of time
distance/velocity = time
