No. I'm sure you understand what 'distance' is.
'Speed' is the rate at which distance changes.
'Velocity' is the rate at which distance changes, and
the direction in which it changes.
Example:
If a ball is rolling around and around and around a circular track,
let's say once around every 3 seconds, then its speed is not changing,
but its velocity is changing constantly, because in order to move in a
circle, its direction has to constantly change.

Nope! Velocity is how much speed changes and average speed there is in a certain distance
