Velocity Calculator

Find average velocity from displacement and time.

Displacement

Time

Velocity 15

Velocity 54

Formula: v = displacement ÷ time

Step-by-step with your numbers:

1. Values used:

2. Displacement = 120

3. Time = 8

5. Velocity = Displacement / Time = 120 / 8 = 15

6. Velocity = 54

Did we solve your problem today?

Velocity is displacement over time — like speed, but with direction (sign) included.

The math behind it

v = Δx ÷ Δt. A negative displacement gives a negative velocity, showing motion in the opposite direction.

120 m in 8 s → 15 m/s = 54 km/h.

Velocity vs speed?

Speed is the magnitude; velocity also carries direction.
