Instantaneous Velocity
Instantaneous velocity, abbreviated as \(v_i\), as the change in time approaches 0, is the velocity at a particular moment in time along its path.

\(\large{ v_i }\) = instantaneous velocity | \(\large{\frac{ft}{sec}}\) | \(\large{\frac{m}{s}}\) |
\(\large{ d l }\) = length or distance (derivative) | \(\large{ft}\) | \(\large{m}\) |
\(\large{ d t }\) = time differential (derivative) | \(\large{sec}\) | \(\large{s}\) |
