Velocity because It is defined as the change in the position with respect to the time. Velocity is a vector quantity that means it depends on the magnitude and direction of an object. The S.I unit of velocity is, m/s

Acceleration : It is defined as the rate of change of velocity of an object wit respect to the time. Acceleration is a vector quantity that means it depends on the magnitude and direction of an object. The S.I unit of acceleration is, m/s to the power of 2

Distance : It is defined as the how far an object has traveled in time. Distance is a scalar quantity that means it is depends on the magnitude of an object only. The S.I unit of distance is, m

Speed : It is defined as the distance traveled by an object in unit time. Speed is also a scalar quantity. The S.I unit of speed is, m/s

Mary traveled 70 miles/hour due north. This is an example of velocity. 70 miles/hour tell us about the magnitude of the object and north tell us about the direction of an object.
Hence, the correct option is, velocity.
