Please answer the following questions:
1. What is the difference between average speed and average velocity?
Answers
Answer: Velocity: Basically the rate of change of position with respect to time. It is a vector (Both magnitude and Direction)
Velocity = Change in position/ Time taken
Average velocity: It means the total change of position with respect to total time taken... It is basically for the full journey... Not any Instant in time
Average Velocity= total change in position/ total time taken
Average speed: It means total distance covered with respect to total time taken... It is a scalar (It has only magnitude... no direction) It basically measures the speed for the full journey not an instant in time
Average speed= total distance covered/ total time taken (it is total distance travelled in the full journey and the total time taken for the full journey)
Speed= distance covered/ total time taken (it is not for total distance travelled and time taken in a journey)
