Question

a body covers the first half of distance between two places at a speed of 14 metre per second and the second half a 60 M per second the average speed of the body during the whole journey will be

Answer 1

If the path is a closed one, due to which the body returns back to square 1, then its effective displacement is 0 m. So average velocity over that period would be 0. However, by saying velocity, in your context, you somehow actually meant speed instead, then average speed would be 24 m/s, no matter, whatever the path is.
