Question

Which of the following measurements is a velocity.

• A. $5\frac{\text{m}}{\text{s}}$
• B. $5\frac{\text{m}}{\text{s}}$ north
• C. $5\frac{\text{m}}{{\text{s}}^2}$
• D. $5\frac{\text{m}}{{\text{s}}^2}$north

Answer 1

The correct option is B

$5\frac{\text{m}}{\text{s}}$ north

Velocity:

1. A velocity of 5 m/s north is the answer.
2. Velocity is a vector quantity that must be defined by both magnitude and direction.
3. The SI (metric system) measures velocity in meters per second (m/s)

Hence, Option(B) is correct.
