Question

A 100-meter sprint is a race using only the straight side of a race track. A 400-meter stick is a race that makes one complete a lap around a racetrack. Why are velocity and speed the same for a 100 m sprint but not a 400 m sprint

Answer 1

Because velocity and speed differ

Answer 2

Because velocity and speed differ each other by direction, in a 100 m sprint race the person moves in a straight path without changing its direction where as in a 400 m race. The person moves in a lap around the race track and the direction changes as he turns according to the race track.
