Answer 5

Your Sitting in a train, and the train is moving 300 Mph, What is YOUR Velocity?

Answer 6

Relative to the ground, your velocity is 300 mph in the direction of the train travel.
Relative to the train, your velocity is 0.

Answer 7

yep

Answer 8

Correct, i was going for "Relative To Train" because YOU are sitting, you are not moving yourself

Answer 9

Therefor, You Have No Velocity

Answer 10

Yes, but relative to the ground, you do have quite a bit of velocity.

Answer 11

Yes. your velocity would be 300. if you are moving, you have velocity. no matter how fast you are going, your velocity will be the same. from walking to running, it will stay the same as the speed your going

Answer 12

No

Your speed is 300

your velocity is 300 in th edirection that the train is travelling

Answer 13

the only difference is that, your moving in a specific direction. thats the only difference from calculating your speed from calculating your speed, and your direction

Answer 14

thats what i said MrNood

Answer 15

well, in different words.

Answer 16

velocity is a vector , speed is a scalar

Answer 17

yes, but you cannot have velocity without direction and speed.

Answer 18

the only thing that changes the question from figuring out your velocity and figuring out your speed, is that they would show you the direction your going *specifically showing, you only figure out speed until 7th grade advanced, or 9th grade*
