  • Speed is a matter of how fast an object is moving regardless of the direction it's going, whereas velocity is a matter of how fast an object gets somewhere with respect to direction.

    Velocity is a measure of how quickly an object moves. So, the velocity is the change in the position of an object, divided by the time. Velocity has a magnitude (a value) and a direction. The unit for velocity is meters per second (m/s).

    v= ( Xf - Xi ) / t

    v = velocity (m/s)
    xf = the final position (m)
    xi = the initial position (m)
    t = the time in which the change occurs (s)
    Δx = short form for "the change in" position (m)

  • there are two formula for velocity .Eventually one can be derived from the other . 
    the first formula is : s = u  + v t 
    the second formula is V^2 = U^2 + 2as
    v= final velocity
    u = initial velocity

  • Displacement/time

  • Velocity can be thought of as speed with direction. The formula for speed is change in distance divided by change in time. The formula for velocity is change in displacement divided by change in time. therefore velocity= s/t. where s= displacement and t= time. the unit of velocity id metre per second.

  • Velocity=(Displacement)/(Time)
    Unit:m/s
    0
  • velocity is displacement by time
    0
  • v=d/t.
    where d is displacement
    and tis a time.

  • The formula is v=displacement/time S.I Unit is m/s
    0
  • The formula for velocity, which is a vector quantity having both magnitude and direction, is given by,
    velocity = displacement / time
    It has unit m/s.
    0
  • Velocity is a vector quantity. Hence it has direction as well as magnitude.
    In order to calculate velocity we use the formula
    Velocity = Displacement / Time
    It has the Unit m/s.

  • Let us first understand the term velocity, according to techtarget.com, "Velocity is a vector expression of the displacement that an object or particle undergoes with respect to time. The standard unit of velocity magnitude (also known as speed ) is the meter per second (m/s)" 

    Ahgg! so much technical, let me break the definition in parts.

    - Velocity is something, "The distance traveled by a body/mass in a unit time in a particular direction is called velocity."

    - In another way velocity can also be defined as The rate of change of displacement is called speed.

    Velocity is always displacement/time. Its unit is m/s.

    Example: Suppose you're traveling on your bicycle the rate at which the bicycle is moving is know as its speed. Velocity is then displacement (change of position) over time (speed+ direction)

  • Velocity can be thought of as speed with direction. The formula for speed is change is distance divided by change in time. the formula for velocity is change in displacement divided by change in time.

  • Velocity: 
    The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference and is a function of time. Velocity is equivalent to a specification of its speed and direction of motion (e.g.60 km/h to the north).

    Velocity is a distance per unit time.

    Velocity = Displacement / Time.
     Its unit m/s
    0
  • velocity = displacement/time
    0
  • The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference, and is a function of time.
      velocity=displacement/time.
     Its unit m/s
    0
  • Velocity is defined as the rate of change of displacement with time.
    So the formula will be velocity = displacement / time.
    0
  • it is change in position of object with time.
    v=s/t
