Solution

The correct option is A vA=vB=vC
Average velocity=Total displacementTotal time
Therefore, vA=vB=vC

The time taken to cover all the paths is the same.
So,
Average velocity ∝ Total displacement
Displacement for path A = Displacement for path B = Displacement for path C
As the displacement and time are the same for all the paths, the average velocities will also be the same.
