Which explains the information needed to calculate speed and velocity?
A. Both require the total distance, but velocity also requires time and displacement.
B. Both require time, but velocity requires displacement and speed requires distance.
C. Speed requires displacement, while velocity requires distance.
D. Speed does not require time, while velocity does require time.
Answer (1)
Speed is the total distance traveled over time, while velocity also incorporates direction and requires displacement. Both concepts depend on time, but speed does not take direction into account. The correct answer indicates that speed requires distance, while velocity needs both displacement and time. ;
