Physics · MOTION IN A STRAIGHT LINE
हिन्दीGiven below are two statements: Statement I: The average velocity of an object can be zero even if its average speed is non-zero. Statement II: The magnitude of average velocity is always equal to average speed. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Correct answer · Option 3
Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
Explanation
Displacement can be zero for a round trip giving zero average velocity, while total distance traveled is non-zero, making average speed non-zero.
