Velocity is distance / time... You also have to mention which direction the object is travelling in (i.e. - 42º N of E).
Velocity IS related to work!!!!!! I can't stress that enough.
Remember, the change in kinetic energy is equal to the work done on an object!! Work-Kinetic Energy theorem. Since
KE = ½m v², KE and velocity are really the same thing.
It takes work to change something's velocity!

Velocity is distance travelled per unit of time, it has no relationship to work. As Newton said, a body will continue to move with the same velocity until acted upon by a force.

depends on the object,,space, distance, is it a solid, liquid,etc
