Velocity in Aircraft Performance Formulas
Velocity is a vector quantity (it has both magnitude and direction) and is the rate of change of the position of an object with respect to time. And is denoted by v. Velocity is usually measured using the Meter per Second for Speed. Note that the value of Velocity is always positive.

FAQ
What is the Velocity?
Velocity is a vector quantity (it has both magnitude and direction) and is the rate of change of the position of an object with respect to time. Velocity is usually measured using the Meter per Second for Speed. Note that the value of Velocity is always positive.
Can the Velocity be negative?
No, the Velocity, measured in Speed cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Velocity?
Velocity is usually measured using the Meter per Second[m/s] for Speed. Meter per Minute[m/s], Meter per Hour[m/s], Kilometer per Hour[m/s] are the few other units in which Velocity can be measured.
