What is the definition velocity for geography c/w?
Velocity is much more frequently used in the science of Physics, rather than its use in Geography. Velocity is defined as the rate of change of position. It is a vector physical quantity; both speed and direction are required to define it. Geography involves movement, but only on an epoch scale, usually measured over a millennium. There is no real velocity involved. It is further defined as the rate of speed with which something happens; rapidity of action or reaction. In Physics velocity is: A vector quantity whose magnitude is a body’s speed and whose direction is the body’s direction of motion. As in The rate of speed of action or occurrence. Less often velocity is used in the science of Mechanics. Where the time rate of change of position of a body in a specified direction.
