Average speed for a moving body will never be zero.
*********************************************
REASON:
AVERAGE SPEED =
TOTAL DISTANCE TRAVELLED/ TOTAL TIME
As DISTANCE is the path travelled by an object, so DISTANCE cannot be zero.
HENCE average speed will never be zero.
NOTE: If object returns to starting point, then displacement will be zero not DISTANCE.
