Velocity Vector Summary

The video tutorial explains how to describe the speed of a balloon moving along a path. It defines velocity as the time derivative of position and breaks it down into components in the x, y, and z directions. The direction of velocity is always tangential to the path, and speed is calculated as the square root of the sum of the squares of the velocity components. The tutorial provides a mathematical understanding of these concepts.
