1. Speed: This tells you how fast the object is moving. It's measured in units like meters per second (m/s) or kilometers per hour (km/h).
2. Direction: This tells you which way the object is moving. You can describe it with words (north, south, east, west, up, down), compass directions (N, S, E, W), or angles relative to a reference point.
Example:
Let's say a car is traveling at 60 kilometers per hour (km/h) towards the east.
* Speed: 60 km/h
* Direction: East
This describes the velocity of the car as 60 km/h east.
Important Note: Velocity is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude (speed) and direction. Speed is a scalar quantity, meaning it only has magnitude.
