Description: In this video, we will analyse when a body is said to be in motion and when it is considered as rest. And if the body is in motion, then what kind of motion...

Question

Task	Speed	Velocity
Write the formula	Speed =	Velocity =
Write the units of the quantities	Distance: Time period:	Displacement: Time period:
Insert the units instead of quantities in the formula. You will get the unit of speed and velocity.	Unit of speed =	Unit of velocity =

Accepted Answer

Speed is defined as the distance covered by an object in unit time whereas velocity is a vector quantity which depends on the direction. The velocity of an object is defined as the rate of change of displacement.

Task Speed Velocity

Write the formula Speed $= \frac{Distance}{Time}$ Velocity $= \frac{Displacement}{Time}$

Write the units of the quantities
Distance: $m, cm$

Time period: $h, s$

Displacement: $m, cm$

Time period: $h, s$

Insert the units instead of quantities in the formula. You will get the unit of speed and velocity.
speed $= \frac{m}{h}, \frac{cm}{s}$ Velocity $= \frac{m}{h}, \frac{cm}{s}$
