Velocity in Transportation System Formulas

Velocity is the rate of change of distance of the vehicle with respect to time. And is denoted by v_vehicle. Velocity is usually measured using the Meter per Second for Speed. Note that the value of Velocity is always positive. Typically, the value of Velocity lies in the range from 0 to 500.
