You need to know its direction. Put that together
with the speed, and you'll have the velocity.

An approaching storm is moving at 15 km per hr what do you need to know to determine its velocity?

To determine the velocity of the approaching storm, you need to know both the speed at which the storm is moving (15 km/hr) and the direction in which it is moving. Velocity is a vector quantity, so it includes both the speed and the direction of motion.


What 3 thing do you need to know to determine velocity?

To determine velocity, you need to know the object's speed (how fast it is moving), the direction in which it is moving (velocity is a vector quantity with magnitude and direction), and the reference point or frame of reference from which the velocity is being measured.


If a storm is moving at 15 kmhr what is needed for the velocity?

Well, isn't that just a happy little question! To find the velocity of the storm, you simply need to know the direction it's moving in. Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed (15 km/hr in this case) and direction. So, if you know the direction, you can describe the storm's velocity fully. Just like painting a beautiful landscape, understanding the full picture can help you appreciate the beauty of nature's creations.


What 2 pieces of information do you need to know to determine the velocity of an object?

To determine the velocity of an object, you need to know its displacement (change in position) and the time it takes for that displacement to occur. Velocity is calculated by dividing the displacement by the time taken.


What variable do you need to determine momentum?

You need to know an object's mass and velocity to determine its momentum. Momentum is calculated as the product of an object's mass and its velocity.


If you know the distance traveled and the time traveled can YOU determine an object and ACCELERATION?

no, you need to know its initial velocity to determine this; if initial velocity is zero then distance is 1/2 acceleration x time squared


What three things must you know to determine velocity?

To determine velocity, you must know the object's distance traveled, the direction in which it traveled, and the time it took to travel that distance. Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed (magnitude) and direction.


If you know the distance an object has travled in a certain amount of time you can determine?

Velocity.


What is your initial velocity if you traveled 25 miles in 2 minutes and your final velocity is 0 mile per hour?

If you traveled 25 miles in 2 minutes, your average speed was 25 miles per 2 minutes or 750 miles per hour. If your rate of deceleration was constant, your initial speed was two times 750 miles per hour or 1500 mph. I do not have enough information to determine your initial velocity because I don't know what direction you were going, and velocity is speed with direction.


To describe velocity you need to know?

Speed is a function of distance and time. For example we refer to 'miles per hour' or 'kilometres per hour' or 'feet per second'' or metres per minute' etc. To determine speed, you need to know the distance travelled and the time it took to travel that distance.


What can you determine if you know the distance an object has traveled in a certain amount of time?

Velocity Velocity= distance/time V=d/t


What must you know to determine which two vehicles traveling at the same velocity has the greater momentum?

You need to know their mass. p=mv momentum=Mass times Velocity
