This document provides 10 examples of situations involving speed or velocity and asks to identify which concept applies by writing "speed" or "velocity" before each number. It also provides definitions and examples to distinguish between speed and velocity. Speed refers to how fast an object is moving without regard to direction, while velocity refers to speed and direction of motion.
