Speed is the rate at which an object covers a distance. Velocity not only determines the speed of the object in motion but also the direction of the object in motion.
In everyday usage, the terms speed and velocity is often used interchangeably and it does not cause that much of a problem. However, when it comes to science and mathematics, these two concepts are different from each other.

speed of an object is the magnitude of its velocity (the rate of change of its position); it is thus a scalar quantity.[1] The average speed of an object in an interval of time is the distance travelled by the object divided by the duration of the interval;[2] the instantaneous speed is the limit of the average speed as the duration of the time interval approaches zero.
The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference, and is a function of time. Velocity is equivalent to a specification of its speed and direction of motion (e.g. 60 km/h to the north). Velocity is an important concept in kinematics, the branch of classical mechanics that describes the motion of bodies.
