Question

Give an example that shows the difference between speed and velocity of the body.

Answer 1

If you were driving at 50 miles per hour to get to a store, you would say that your speed is 50 miles per hours. If you were driving in a circle and ended at the same place, you would say that your velocity is zero, because there was no directional gain. The key to remember is that velocity is a vector, which means there is a directional component.

Answer 2

Hello Dear 
____________________________________________________
Speed is a scalar quantity 
Velocity is a vector quantity 
Speed can only be positive 
Velocity can be Positive,negative and even zero 
____________________________________________________
Speed = Distance /time 
Velocity = displacement /time
___________________________________________________
Take an example 
Arlissa goes from poins A TO B 
And cover some distance (d) in some time (t)
In this situation distance and displacement are same 
So, that's why speed and velocity are also same ,
But think when Arlissa Move back to A The displacement becomes zero 
And also velocity becomes zero 
But the distance becomes (2d) so the speed will different than velocity
