Average velocity calculator


What is velocity?

Speed is a scalar quantity. So you can only say e.g.: "my car can go 20 mph".
On the contrary velocity is a vector quantity so it does not include only magnitude of speed but also a direction. Example for this would be: "object is moving 2.6 m/s north."



\( v_a = \dfrac{v + v_0}{2} \ \ \) where

\( v_a \) is average velocity
\( v \) is velocity
\( v_0 \) is initial velocity

Average velocity va = {{ result}}





\( v_0 = 2 \cdot (v_a - v) \ \ \) where

\( v_0 \) is initial velocity
\( v_a \) is average velocity
\( v \) is velocity

Initial velocity v0 = {{ result}}





\( v = 2 \cdot (v_a - v_0) \ \ \) where

\( v \) is velocity
\( v_0 \) is initial velocity
\( v_a \) is average velocity

Velocity v = {{ result}}
