What is the velocity of an object that traveled a distance of 1000 meters South in 50 seconds.
Velocity is a vector quantity in which it has both of the magnitude and direction. Thus, it's just like a speed with direction.
[tex]\begin{gathered} \large \tt speed=distance÷time \\ \large \tt = 1000 \: m \: \div \: 50 \: s = 20 \: m/s\end{gathered} [/tex]
The velocity of the object is 20 meters per second South.
