Answer:
THE BASIC DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SPEED AND VELOCITY IS:
1.SPEED HAS ONLY MAGNITUDE AND NO DIRECTION WHEREAS VELOCITY HAS BOTH MAGNITUDE AND DIRECTION.
2.SPEED IS ALWAYS POSITIVE(THAT IS NON - NEGATIVE AND NON-ZERO) WHEREAS VELOCITY IS EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE.
3.SPEED IS SCALAR QUANTITY AND VELOCITY IS VECTOR QUANTITY.
