The correct answer is option ( A) the ratio of their average speeds (bird 1/bird 2) is 1.0
velocity = distance / Time
Let us assume distance covered by Bird 1 = d
case 1 (Bird 1) :-
time = 6 hours
velocity(Bird1) = d/6 = 0.167*d
case 2 (Bird 2) :-
time = 12 hours
distance is twice of Bird 1 = 2d
velocity(Bird2) = 2d/12 = 0.167*d
now, velocity of Bird1/Bird2 = (0.167*d)/(0.167*d) = 1.0
So,velocity of (Bird1/Bird2) is 1.0 .
Average velocity / Average speed = Total displacement / Total distance. Remember that the numerator is less than or equal to the denominator. As a result, the ratio is always equal to or less than one. Distance traveled divided by time taken is the most commonly used formula for calculating average speed. The other formula is to add the initial and final speeds together and divide by two.
