Talk:Velocity

Velocity and speed[change source]

Velocity and speed are not the same thing in physics or engineering.

If you talk about velocity you must give it a direction as well as speed.

The formula velocity = distance / time is wrong. Speed = distance / time.

The pages is about speed, not velocity.

These pages talk about the difference between speed and velocity.

Intro to vectors

I have had a try at adding the physics definition, but I am no physicist. Let me know if I have understood the concept.Peterdownunder (talk) 11:11, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
