Step 1
Introduction:-
We know that the two terms which are used here are vector and velocity. We define each as
A vector is a quantity that has a magnitude as well as direction.
Velocity is a vector quantity that has a magnitude as well as direction. if the velocity has a magnitude only then we will not consider it as velocity then we call it a speed. speed has a magnitude only not a direction.
We also know that the unit of velocity is m/s or km/hr.
Find:-
