SSC CGL 2022 PYQ — Question 30

SSC CGL - 02 Dec 2022 - Shift 4 • General Awareness • Q30

______ in a particular direction is velocity.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. Speed.

Speed in a particular direction is velocity.

Velocity is a vector quantity that describes the rate at which an object changes its position in a specific direction. Unlike speed, which is a scalar quantity and only measures how fast something is moving, velocity includes both the magnitude (speed) and the direction of motion. This means that two objects can have the same speed but different velocities if they are moving in different directions.
