Statement 2: Magnitude of instantaneous velocity is equal to instantaneous speed.

Q. The ratio of magnitude of average velocity to average speed is greater than or equal to 1.

In Exercises 3.13 and 3.14, we have carefully distinguished between average speed and magnitude of average velocity. No such distinction is necessary when we consider instantaneous speed and magnitude of velocity. The instantaneous speed is always equal to the magnitude of instantaneous velocity. Why?

The ratio of average velocity to average speed is 1 always equal to Unity 2 always greater than Unity 3 always less than Unity or 4 may be less than or equal to Unity
