Speed and velocity have the same magnitudes. The only difference is that speed is a scalar quantity and velocity is a vector quantity. In other words, speed is just a magnitude, while velocity is a magnitude with direction. They're essentially the same.
Let's convert miles to meters and minutes to seconds
1/4 mile = 402.34 meters ( 1 mile = 1609 m)
13.1 minutes = 786 seconds (1 minute = 60 seconds)
Speed is calculated as distance over time, thus,
Speed = (402.34 meters)*8/786 seconds
a.) Speed = 4.1 m./s
b.) Velocity = 4.1 m/s
Circular motion is what an object has if it is moving around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around in a path that is a circle.

Answer:
Person B has four times the power output of person A.
Answer: -3.49 m/s (to the south)
Explanation:
This problem can be solved by the Conservation of Momentum principle which establishes the initial momentum 
must be equal to the final momentum 
, and taking into account this is aninelastic collision:
Before the collision:
(1)
After the collision:
(2)
Where:
is the mass of the car
is the velocity of the car, directed to the north
is the mass of the truck
is the velocity of the truck, directed to the south
is the final velocity of both the car and the truck
(3)
(4)
Isolating :
(5)
(6)
Finally:
The negative sign indicates the direction of the velocity is to the south
