The velocity of an object is simply its speed and its direction. Note that both speed and direction are required to define a velocity. A change in an object's velocity can therefore arise from either a change in its speed or in its direction. For example an aeroplane that is circling at a constant speed of 200km/h is changing its velocity because it is continously changing its direction. A aeroplane that is taking-off may go from zero to 200km/h in a straight line and so would also be changing its velocity.
