What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Speed and velocity both involve distance traveled over time, but velocity also includes direction


Speed is how fast you're going, velocity is how fast you move


Speed is calculated by dividing the distance you travel by the time it took, whereas velocity you can just tell by looking at it


Velocity is more scientific
