About this calculator
Overview
Velocity is the rate at which an object changes its position. Unlike speed, velocity is a vector, meaning it has a direction.
💡
Pro Tips
Velocity = Displacement / Time.
Displacement is the straight-line distance between start and end points.
If you return to the start, your average velocity is zero, regardless of distance traveled.

Fun Facts
"The speed of light in a vacuum is exactly 299,792,458 meters per second."
"Peregrine falcons can reach diving velocities of over 320 km/h (200 mph)."
"Terminal velocity is the constant speed that a free-falling object eventually reaches when the resistance of the medium prevents further acceleration."
