Question

Since distance is always positive, speed is also always positive.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

1. The ratio of distance travelled and the time taken by a body can be zero but not negative.
2. Since distance and time are positive quantities and speed is obtained by the ratio of these two quantities, so speed cannot be negative.
3. Hence, distance and speed both will always be positive.
4. So, the given statement is true.
