An object travelling with a constant speed in different angles is termed as velocity of the object with speed being its magnitude and angles being its direction.

Explanation:

Velocity is a vector quantity which means it has a magnitude and direction. So magnitude is the quantitative amount of a given term and direction is its nature of flow.

If we consider a ball is thrown at a speed of 50 m/s in an angle of 30°, then the ball is exhibiting a velocity of 50 m/s with speed and direction as the angle of travelling direction in 30°. Thus, velocity consists of both magnitude as well as direction.
