The speed of a moving object is define as the total distance covered divided by the time taken to cover distance.
Speed = total distance covered / time.
Speed is a scalar quantity.
And the velocity of an object is defined as the displacement divided by the time.
V= displacement / time.
Velocity is a vector quantity.
