Explanation:
The short answer is that velocity is thespeed with a direction, while speeddoes not have a direction. Speed is a scalar quantity—it is the magnitude of the velocity. Speed is measured in units of distance divided by time (e.g., miles per hour, feet per second, meters per second, etc.).
