A metaphor is a figurative language device that represents one thing as if it were another, or compares two things not normally viewed as similar, such as time is a thief. This comparison draws attention to the way time is quick and stealthy. Simile
Velocity is the rate of motion, speed or action. An example of velocity is a car driving at 75 miles per hour. velocity. pl. velocity. pl. Rapidity or speed of motion; swiftness. Physics A vector quantity whose magnitude is a body's speed and whose direction is the body's direction of motion.
Velocity is a physical vector quantity; both magnitude and direction are needed to define it. The scalar absolute value (magnitude) of velocity is called speed, a quantity that is measured in metres per second (m/s or mâs â1) in the SI (metric) system.or example, 5 metres per second is a scalar (not a vector), whereas 5 metres per second east is a vector. If there is a change in speed, direction, or both, then the object has a changing velocity and is said to be undergoing an acceleration.
