Understanding Velocity

Velocity is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude (speed) and direction.

* Speed: How fast an object is moving.

* Direction: The way an object is moving.

Calculation

1. Speed:

* Distance = 240 km

* Time = 4 hours

* Speed = Distance / Time = 240 km / 4 hours = 60 km/h

2. Direction: West

Answer: The car's velocity is 60 km/h west.
