Answer:

Speed describes only how fast an object is moving, whereas velocity gives both the speed and direction of the object’s motion being a vector quantity. The standard unit to measure velocity is meter per second (m/s or ms-1). For example, “10 meters per second” is scalar and “10 meters per second West” is vector. Acceleration
