The distance travelled per unit time is called speed
Explanation:
- Speed is defined as the distance travelled per unit time.
- It is a scalar quantity, whereas velocity is a vector quantity since it has a specific magnitude and direction.
Speed is represented in the equation form as:
where
is the speed
is the distance travelled
is the time taken
The dimensional formula of speed is
- Speedometers are used to calculate the speed of the vehicle.
- Speed can be analysed with the help of a graph.
