hope this helps u
Speed and velocity have the same unit yet they are different physical identities because speed is a scalar quantity whereas velocity is a vector quantity.
Speed has no direction, only magnitude whereas velocity has both magnitude as well as direction.
That's why there can be a difference in their values.

Answer:
The speed is the scalar magnitude of the velocity. The magnitude of a vector must be in the same units as the vector itself; it lacks only a direction.
