HEYA MATE :-)

UR ANSWER :-

Difference between speed and velocity are as follows : 

1. Velocity has direction and Speed is non direction.

2. Velocity follows vector law of algebra but speed do not.

.3. Velocity can be +ve, -ve or zero but speed is non negative.

4. Velocity is vector quantity but speed is scalar qty.

HOPE THIS HELPS YOU:-)

Answer:

Difference between velocity and speed

Speed is how fast an object is moving. It is calculated by the displacement of space per a unit of time. Velocity is the rate at which an object changes position in a certain direction. It is calculated by the displacement of space per a unit of time in a certain direction. Velocity deals with direction, while speed does not.

The short answer is that velocity is the speed with a direction, while speed does 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.).

Velocity is a vector quantity—when giving the velocity we must specify the magnitude (the speed) and the direction of travel. For example you might drive 100km/hr (the speed) in a northerly direction.

This is analogous to the difference between distance (a scalar quantity) and displacement (the distance with direction).
