Question

are average speed and average velocity same? if not explain why?​

Answer 1

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.

Explanation:

because

speed =distance /time taken

and velocity =displacement /time taken

distance and displacement are not same

so velocity and speed are not the same

Answer 2

Answer:

Average speed and average velocity are not same

Explanation:

Because average speed is a scalar quantity i.e it has only magnitude and no directions whereas average velocity is a vector quantity (has direction and magnitude).
