Velocity is a vector because it measures magnitude and direction. The average velocity of an object is its total displacement divided by the total time taken. Velocity has a magnitude a value and a direction.

Average Velocity Formula displacement over time The velocity of an object is the rate at which it moves from one position to another. Define position displacement and distance traveled. The average velocity calculator uses the formula that shows the average velocity v equals the sum of the final velocity v and the initial velocity u divided by 2. In other words it is the rate at which an object changes its position from one place to another.
