No. if you are accelerating from rest, for example, and reach 80 mph starting from 0, your average velocity is 40 mph, but your speed is 80 mph at the end. Generally we speak of average speed, so if it takes one hour to go 60 miles your average speed is 60 mph, even though you may have slowed and then gone faster at certain times.

∙ 7y agoThere is no such thing as "speed per hour" - at least, if you divide a speed by time, you are no longer talking about a speed.A speed - expressed in some DISTANCE per hour - may refer to an INSTANTANEOUS speed, or to an AVERAGE speed. Those two are different things.

Secondly, average sped is speed averaged over a period of time - as opposed to the speed over a shorter period.
