Distinguish between speed and velocity
1. Speed is a scalar unit. Velocity is vector unit.
2. Speed is distance travelled by a body per unit time. Whereas velocity is displacement per unit time.
3. Average speed can never be zero. Average velocity can be zero.
4. Speed indicates how fast a body moves. Velocity indicates how fast a body moves in a particular direction.
5. Speed has only magnitude.
4. Velocity has both magnitude and direction.
