From the definitions, we know that
\(Speed = \frac{Distance\;travelled}{Time\;taken}\)And
\(Velocity = \frac{Displacement\;of\;body}{Time\;taken}\)Consider the figure given below:
From the figure, speed and velocity can be given as:
\(Speed = \frac{AB+BC}{t}\)And
\(Velocity = \frac{AC}{t}\)Substituting the values, we get
\(Speed = \frac{x+2y}{t}\)And
\(Velocity = \frac{x}{t}\)Therefore, speed is greater than speed.
