* Velocity is a vector: Velocity has both magnitude (speed) and direction.
* Speed is a scalar: Speed only has magnitude.
Example: Imagine a car driving around a circular track at a constant speed of 50 mph.
* Speed is constant: The car's speed remains 50 mph throughout the entire loop.
* Velocity is changing: Even though the car's speed is constant, its velocity is constantly changing because its direction is changing.
In Summary:
To change velocity, you can either:
1. Change speed: Increase or decrease the speed of the object.
2. Change direction: Even if speed stays the same, altering the direction of movement changes the velocity.
