Speed Calculator – Distance and Time

Calculate speed from distance and time

Calculate Speed

How to Use

  1. Enter the distance traveled
  2. Enter the time taken
  3. Select your preferred units
  4. Click calculate to see the speed

Speed Formula

Speed is calculated using the formula: Speed = Distance / Time. This gives you the average speed over the entire journey.

Applications

  • Running and cycling pace calculation
  • Vehicle speed determination
  • Physics problem solving
  • Race time predictions
  • Travel time estimates

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between speed and velocity?
Speed is a scalar quantity (magnitude only), while velocity is a vector (magnitude and direction). This calculator computes speed.
Is this average or instantaneous speed?
This calculator computes average speed over the entire distance and time period.
