Answer:

Average velocity and average speed are not always the same as average velocity is related to the displacement of a body whereas average speed is related to the distance travelled by a body. Average velocity is determined by dividing the total displacement of a body with time.

Answer:

No they are no the same.

Explanation:

Average speed depends on distance and average velocity depends on displacement. If an object changes direction in its journey, then the average speed will be greater than the magnitude of the average velocity.

Average speed is a scalar quantity and velocity is a vector quantity.
