Suppose an individual is driving a car at 65 miles per hour while drinking a cup of coffee. Which of the following is traveling at the greatest speed?
A

Because velocity is a function of both speed and direction, this question cannot be answered.

B

None of the objects possess velocity, as they are all traveling together.

C

The car is the only object with velocity, as the other objects are contained within it.

D

The car, the coffee, and the driver are all traveling at the same velocity.

The coffee is traveling with the greatest velocity, assuming it has the least mass.
