under what condition (s) is the magnitude of average velocity of an object equal to its average speed ?
Open in App
Solution
We know that average velocity = total displacement /total time
average speed = total distance / total time
Average velocit will be equal to average speed only when the distance = displacement
This is possible only when the object moves in a same direction along a straight line
average speed = total distance / total time
Average velocit will be equal to average speed only when the distance = displacement
This is possible only when the object moves in a same direction along a straight line
