Question

Which of the following is true for a moving particle ?
A) Magnitude of average velocity may be greater than average speed
B) Average speed may be greater than magnitude of average velocity If magnitude of average velocity is zero than average speed must be
C) zero
D) Average speed is always greater than average velocity​

Answer 1

Answer:

Average speed is define as path length divided by time interval. So the given statement is false.

(3) A particle moving in a given direction with a non-zero velocity can't have zero speed.So the given statement is false.

(4) The magnitude of average velocity can never be equal to the average speed.So the given statement is false.
