Velocity= a speed and a direction
The speed is 15 km/hr
You still need a direction to make a velocity.
You need to know its direction. Put that togetherwith the speed, and you'll have the velocity.
Tropical storm
Thunderstorm.
The word 'storm' appears 20 times in the King James version of the Bible.
storm
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.
For velocity, both speed and direction are needed. Since the storm is moving at 15 km/hr, the speed is 15 km/hr. To calculate the velocity, the direction of the storm's movement would also be required.
Doppler radar measures the shift in frequency of the radar waves as they bounce off precipitation particles in the storm. By comparing the frequencies of the waves coming towards the radar with those going away, the radar can determine the velocity of the storm. The direction of the storm's movement is then calculated based on this velocity data.
You need to know its direction. Put that togetherwith the speed, and you'll have the velocity.
Velocity as opposed to speed is a vector and is therefore much more useful. For example when driving in a car your speedometer tells you your speed in Mph or KMph. This however does not give you information on where you are going, it only tells you how fast. You could be going north, south, east or west. Velocity on the other hand is a vector, which means it gives you direction and magnitude. So you know the car's speed and direction. Therefore velocity is more important in describing how a storm is moving because it tells you where the storm is going and how fast it is going.
