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.

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. Put another way, speed is a scalar value, while velocity is a vector. In its simplest form, average velocity is calculated by dividing change in position (Δr) by change in time (Δt).
