Answer:
The short answer is that velocity is the speed with a direction, while speed does not have a direction. Speed is a scalar quantity—it is the magnitude of the velocity. Speed is measured in units of distance divided by time (e.g., miles per hour, feet per second, meters per second, etc.).

speed is defined as distance upon time. speed has only magnitude and not specified direction.
velocity is defined as displacement upon time. velocity has both magnitude as well as specified direction.
speed speed is a scalar quantity and velocity is a vector quantity.
