What are the units of measurement for velocity?
What are the units of measurement for velocity?
The units of measurement for velocity are meters per second (m/s) in the SI system, or other combinations of distance units and time units.
How does velocity differ from speed?
How does velocity differ from speed?
Velocity differs from speed in that it includes the direction of motion, while speed is a scalar quantity that only represents the magnitude of motion.
