Question

One jet plane is flying east at 880km/h, and another plane is flying north at 880km/h. Do they have the same velocities? The same speeds? Explain.

Answer 1

I think they have the same speeds but don’t have the same velocities. Because, they are the same about magnitude, so they are the same speeds, and they are not the same about direction, led to they are not the same about velocity

Answer 2

The jet planes have different velocity but same speed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Velocity is a vector quantity. It has both magnitude and direction. Speed has only magnitude. Both the jet planes have same speed that is 880 km/h but fly different directions. One plane flies towards East and another towards north. Thus, the planes have different velocities.
