The seepage velocity is less than the actual flow rate of the liquid or gas in the pores because the fluid moves only through the portion of the cross-sectional area S that is occupied by the pores.
Velocity as a Vector Quantity. Velocity is a vector quantity that refers to the rate at which an object changes its position.. Imagine a person moving rapidly-one step forward and one step back-always returning to the original starting position.While this might result in a frenzy of activity, it would result in a zero velocity.f an object is moving rightwards, then its velocity is described as being rightwards. If an object is moving downwards, then its velocity is described as being downwards. So an airplane moving towards the west with a speed of 300 mi/hr has a velocity of 300 mi/hr, west.
