ppefmh	Ed	Garstin	1/1	We carry out calculations involving velocity by using the same equation that we saw in the previous chapter. However, unlike with speed we have to state the objects direction.		Speed is a scalar quantity because it only has magnitude (size) and not direction. However, velocity is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction. Speed is a vector quantity because it only has magnitude (size) and not direction. However, velocity is a scalar quantity because it has both magnitude and direction. Speed is a scalar quantity because it has magnitude (size) and direction. However, velocity is a vector quantity because it only has magnitude.	100%
