What is average speed and average velocity?

Average speed:

1. It is the ratio of the total distance traveled by the object to the total time taken by it.
2. Speed is a scalar quantity, which means it has no direction.
3. It denotes how quickly an object moves.
4. If the particle's speed is high, it means it moves quickly, and if it is low, it moves slowly.

Average velocity:

1. It is the ratio of the total displacement to the total time taken by the object.
2. Velocity is a vector quantity, which means it has both magnitude and direction.
3. It denotes the object's rate of movement or change of location.
4. The velocity vector's direction is simple to determine. It moves in the same direction as the moving object.
