Detailed explanation-1: -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.
Detailed explanation-2: -Differences Between Speed and Velocity Speed is simply the rate of change of motion. Or simply, it is the distance traveled by a body in a unit of time. Velocity is direction-aware and it is the rate of change of position of an object.
Detailed explanation-3: -Speed is ignorant of direction. On the other hand, velocity is a vector quantity; it is direction-aware. Velocity is the rate at which the position changes. The average velocity is the displacement or position change (a vector quantity) per time ratio.
Detailed explanation-4: -Velocity refers to the rate at which an object changes their position in a particular direction. It is a scalar quantity as it comprises of magnitude only. Velocity is a vector quantity as it comprises of both magnitude and direction. Speed indicates how fast an object is moving.
