SPEED | VELOCITY |
The distance travelled the body from its initial position to final position in one second is called speed. | The displacement travelled by the body in one second is called velocity |
It is a scalar quantity. | It is a vector quantity. |
Average speed of a body can never be zero. | Average velocity of a body can be zero when displacement is zero. |
Speed is always positive. | Velocity can be positive, negative & zero based on the reference point. |
