Do speed and velocity has the same dimension? How?

Open in App

Solution

Speed is a scalar quantity (just a magnitude), and velocity is a vector quantity (which has both magnitude and direction), so they are different.Speed, however, is the magnitude of the velocity vector: s = v. ... So, we sayspeed and velocity have the same dimension.
