Speed, being a scalar quantity, is the rate at which an object covers distance. ... On the other hand, velocity is a vector quantity; it is direction-aware. Velocity is the rate at which the position changes. The average velocity is the displacement or position change (a vector quantity) per time ratio.

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)speed is scalar quantity

(1) velocity is vector quantity

(2)speed can never be negative or zero and it is always positive

(2) velocity can be negative or zero and it can be positive

(3)speed is time taken to travel a specific distance

(3) velocity is time taken to travel minimum distance from 1 point to other point

(4)speed=distance upon time

(4) velocity = displacement (minimum distance between 2 points ) upon time

did u understand if not then comment
