Velocity is a measure of how quickly something moves in a certain direction. It is usually expressed as an object's speed in a certain direction per unit of time. Velocity is a vector, meaning it has a magnitude (size) and direction.
What is Velocity?
3. Slide

Velocity is the speed of an object in a particular direction. It is a vector quantity, which means it has both magnitude (size) and direction. Acceleration is the rate of change of an object’s velocity. It measures how quickly an object’s velocity is changing. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion. It is an object’s resistance to changes in its speed or direction of motion.

The velocity of light is the fastest velocity in the universe, travelling at 299,792,458 m/s. The highest recorded velocity for a human being is 12.4 m/s, achieved by Canadian skateboarder, Jake Brown, after a fall from a height of 11.7m. In a vacuum, the velocity of sound is 340.29 m/s, which is approximately 767 mph.

If an object moves with a velocity of -30 m/s, what does this tell you about its motion?
  • The object is moving to the left.
  • The object has stopped.
  • The direction of motion cannot be determined from this information.
