Question

If average velocity of an object is zero, the average speed of the object must
also be zero. Do you agree with this statement? Justify your answer.

Answer 1

no, its never necessary because if body returns to the starting point average velocity is zero because displacement is zero but since body has covered some distance so it has some speed

Answer 2

Answer:

Yes, of course I agree

Explanation:

. Velocity is a vector quantity and instantaneous velocity can be thought as the combination of speed (scalar) and the direction of movement. If the speed is zero that means the object is at rest. Hence, we can say that if an object's speed is zero then it's velocity must be zero.
