The distance an object travels per unit of time can refer to both speed and velocity.
Speed is a scalar quantity that describes how fast an object is moving in a specific direction, regardless of the direction it is moving in. It is calculated as the distance traveled divided by the time taken.
Velocity, on the other hand, is a vector quantity that describes how fast and in what direction an object is moving. It is also calculated as the distance traveled divided by the time taken, but it includes information about the direction of the movement.
So, the term "distance an object travels per unit of time" could refer to either speed (scalar) or velocity (vector) depending on whether the direction of the movement is important in the context of the question or scenario.
