By definition we have to:

The average velocity is that velocity in a given time interval. It is calculated by dividing the displacement by the elapsed time, according to the following formula:


v = (xf - xi)/(tf - ti)

We must remember that the average velocity is a vector. Therefore, it has magnitude and direction.

Answer:

The following is a vector describing how fast an object moves over a long time interval:

average velocity
