Question

difference between average speed and average velocity

Answer 1

                               Total distance travelled       

Average speed = --------------------------------------, mathematically, v=s/t.

                                   Total time  Taken

                                initial velocity + final velocity

Average velocity = -----------------------------------------

                                                  2

mathematically, Vav= u+v/2.

 

Answer 2

$\huge\textbf{Answer}$

» Average Speed

1) Rate of change of distance of a position with respect to time.

2) It is a Scaler Quantity.

3) It is always positive or zero.

4) It is greater or equal to average velocity.

» Average Velocity

1) Rate of change of displacement of a position with respect to e.

2) It is a vector quantity.

3) It is positive, negative or zero.

4) It is smaller than average speed.
