Answer:
no
Explanation:
beause
speed =distance /time taken
and velocity =displacement /time taken
distance and displacement are not same
so velocity and speed are not the same
please mark as brainliest

Answer:
No, Average speed is not same as average velocity.
Explanation :
- Average velocity is defined as the difference between the change in position or displacement (x) and the time intervals (t) during which the displacement occurs.
- The average velocity may be positive or negative depending on the displacement's direction.
- The unit of measure for average velocity in the SI is metres per second (m/s or ms-1).
- The object's average speed is the total distance it travels in a predetermined amount of time.
- The typical speed is represented by a scalar value. It is characterised by the magnitude and lacks direction.
- Average velocity is a vector quantity as opposed to average speed, which is a scalar quantity.
- Average velocity considers the displacement between two points, whereas average speed considers the total distance travelled.
- Average speed and average velocity are equal if the total displacement is equal to the total distance, or if the body moves in a straight line without changing direction.
