Question

difference between speed and velocety​

Answer 1

Answer:

Speed is the time rate at which an object is moving along a path, while velocity is the rate and direction of an object's movement. ... For example, 50 km/hr (31 mph) describes the speed at which a car is traveling along a road, while 50 km/hr west describes the velocity at which it is traveling.

Answer 2

Difference between speed and velocity:-

Speed:-

1. Rate of change of distance with time
2. Scalar quantity
3. It indicates rapidity of object
4. When the body returns to its initial position, speed will not be zero
5. Speed can never be negative

Velocity:-

1. Rate of change of displacement of a body with time
2. Vector quantity
3. Along with rapidity, it indicates direction of a object
4. When the body returns to its initial position, velocity can be zero
5. It can either be negative or positive, sometimes zero
