A velocity is the speed of a moving object with a given direction

Take example : Part A have Velocity of (0,1, 0), that mean it will move upward

You can change the velocity of an unanchored Objects with script to make them move a certain distance and direction

A BodyVelocity gives and maintain a constant Velocity to an object, meaning if your Object have a BodyVelocity with the Velocity of (0, 1, 0) that it will keep moving upward.

So basically, they are used for moving objects in a given direction
