some may feel speed and velocity are same terms but both are diffrent,let seehow?
Speed=distance travelled/time,that means it depents on how much distance you travelled,its a scalar quantity that means it dont depents on the direction
velocity:it depents on diaplacement,ie;velocity=displacement/time,displacement is the measure of smallest distance between mean position and last,its a vecter quatity,so its value can be negetive,+ve,and may zero
Speed is just a number; velocity includes information about the direction. In physical terms, speed is a scalar, whereas velocity is a vector.
Speed is just a number; velocity includes information about the direction. In physical terms, speed is a scalar, whereas velocity is a vector.
They are both accurate but velocity gives more information as it is speed with a direction

Speed is just a magnitude (or number); velocity includes information about the direction as well. In physical terms, speed is a scalar, whereas velocity is a vector.
Speed and Direction
You need the speed and velocity +++ They are equivalent save that speed is a scalar and velocity a vector. You need intervals of time and distance.
Speed and velocity
Velocity is a vector quantity, which means it is made up of more than one numeric value. Velocity vectors must contain information on speed and direction.
If the direction of motion is constant then the velocity is the same as the speed in that direction. If the direction is not constant, the information given is nowhere near sufficient to calculate the velocity.
Speed is distance divided by the time taken Velocity is distance in a particular direction divided by the time taken. Velocity is a vector quantity while speed is a scalar quantity. That means that velocity include information about the direction of movement, while speed does not.
