Explanation:

John is traveling north at 20 meters/second and his friend Betty is traveling south at 20 meters/second.

We know that the total distance covered divided by total time taken is called speed of an object. It is a scalar quantity i.e. it have only magnitude. While velocity is a vector quantity.

In this case, north direction is considered as positive while south direction is considered as negative.

So, John's speed is 20 meters/second and Betty's speed is 20 meters/second as speed is a scalar quantity.

John's velocity is 20 m/s north.
Betty's velocity is 20 m/s south.
Their speeds are both 20 m/s.

Vika [28.1K]
Icy/Snowy roads have less friction than normal roads. This means that the wheels are less likely to stay positioned because of traction, and you will spin out of control
