Velocity is a vector quantity that refers to the rate at which an object changes its position. It is defined as the displacement of an object divided by the time taken to cover that displacement. Unlike speed, which is a scalar quantity and only considers magnitude, velocity takes into account both magnitude and direction. Therefore, an object’s velocity changes if either its speed or direction changes. It is typically measured in meters per second (m/s) in the International System of Units (SI).
