Well, let's see. According to The Physics Classroom, a website run by science department of Glenbrook High School in Glenview Illinois, speed is a "scalar...
In this context, none. In general a speed does not have an associated direction, but a velocity does, e.g. compare "a fast horse can gallop at 40 mph" with "I...
