1. Speed: This tells you how fast the object is moving. It is a scalar quantity, meaning it only has magnitude (e.g., 10 meters per second).
2. Direction: This tells you the direction the object is moving in.
Therefore, velocity is a vector quantity. It has both magnitude (speed) and direction.
Example:
* Saying a car is traveling at 60 miles per hour (mph) only tells you its speed.
* Saying a car is traveling at 60 mph east tells you its velocity.
