More accurately, velocity is a change in an object's position in a specified direction with time.
So while you'd say in every day language that the car has a speed of 60 miles per hour, in physics you'd say the car's velocity is 60 miles per hour North/South/East/West.

โ 12y agoVelocity is a vector quantity that describes the rate at which an object changes its position. It includes both the speed of the object and the direction in which it is moving. Mathematically, velocity is the derivative of an object's position with respect to time.
Some words that contain the root word "onym" are synonym (meaning a word with a similar meaning), antonym (meaning a word with the opposite meaning), and homonym (meaning a word that sounds the same but has a different meaning).
The homophone for select meaning "to choose" is "selekt."
The Telugu meaning of relation is เฐธเฐเฐฌเฐเฐงเฐ (sambandham).
The term for the speed of speech is "rate" and the term for the speed of movement is "velocity."
An expression of a meaning that contradicts the literal meaning is called an idiom. Idioms are phrases that have a figurative rather than literal meaning, often making them difficult to understand when translated directly.
Speed.
quickness of motion : speed the velocity of sound
The root word for velocity is veloc. Meaning...I do believe..speed.
Because that's the definition of 'velocity'.'Velocity' is not just a word you use instead of 'speed' when you want to sound smart.It's meaning is different from the meaning of 'speed'.'Velocity' has two parts to it . . . speed and direction. If either of those changes, thenthe velocity has changed.
Blood viscosity is the most important efect on blood velocity. Viscosity meaning how thin or thick the blood is. Velocity meaning the flow of blood. If the blood is too thick it's velocity will be slow. If the blood is thin, the blood will flow faster.
Speed doesn't "become" velocity. Velocity is simply speed as a vector, meaning that not only the magnitude is specified (as in the speed), but also the direction.
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.
The formula for velocity is velocity = distance/time. It measures the rate at which an object changes its position. Velocity is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction.
The slope of a line on a velocity-time graph is acceleration.
Meaning something that goes at extreme velocity.
Speed and direction of an objects motion.
Low muzzle velocity or energy
