Question

When a particle moves with constant velocity its average velocity, its instantaneous velocity and its speed all are equal. Is this statement true or false ?

Answer 1

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The instantaneous velocity is the velocity of a particle at a particular instant. As the particle moves with constant velocity (means velocity at any instant is same.) and if you take the average still it turns out to be same.

So the above statement is true.

Answer 2

Answer:

Yes the statement is true.

let the instantaneous velocity be v

average velocity =( v + v )/ 2

                            = v

therefore, average velocity = instantaneous velocity  

As the magnitude of velocity is not changing speed is constant ,as speed is only the magnitude of velocity.
