Solution

The correct option is D

Both option A and C.


For average velocity and average speed to be same distance and displacement of the body should be same. A flight travels in almost the least minimum distance between initial and final position. So its distance and displacement are approximately same. A car making a round trip on a circular track, its displacement will be 0 whereas it will have some non-zero distance. On a straight road distance and displacements are same as long as the object never returns back and always moves along the same direction.
