"Velocity"

The velocity of an object refers to the speed and direction in which it moves. If you drive north to your work place and your speedometer reads 35 miles per hour, then your velocity is 35 miles per hour in a northward direction. Velocity is speed with a direction and is important in understanding bumper car collisions.
