Physics - Mechanics - Kinematics - Speed vs velocity - Speed vs Velocity
A 4-step lesson. Step 1: 'Speed = Distance ÷ Time. It tells HOW FAST, but not WHERE.' Speed is scalar - just a number with units. Step 2: 'Velocity = Displacement ÷ Time. It tells how fast AND in what direction.' Velocity is a vector - has magnitude and direction. Step 3: 'Example: A car drives 100
