how is velocity equal to average velocity? or d/t= u+v/2
Answers
The average speed of an object is defined as the distance traveled divided by the time elapsed. Velocity is a vector quantity, and average velocity can be defined as the displacement divided by the time.
Speed, being a scalar quantity, is the rate at which an object covers distance. The average speed is the distance (a scalar quantity) per time ratio.... Velocity is the rate at which the position changes. The average velocity is the displacement or position change (a vector quantity) per time ratio.
The average velocity of an object is its total displacement divided by the total time taken. In other words, it is the rate at which an object changes its position from one place to another. Average velocity is a vector quantity. The SI unit is meters per second.
