Correct Answer: It is the distance covered by an object in a unit of time


Solution : The correct option is It is the distance covered by an object in a unit of time.

Speed is the distance travelled by an object per unit of time. It quantifies how quickly or slowly an object moves and is a scalar quantity, meaning it only has magnitude (not direction). If the direction of motion is also considered, it becomes velocity.
