Question

What do you mean by average velocity​

Answer 1

Answer:

Here is the answer. Hope this helps you!

Explanation:

Average velocity is the sum of initial and final velocity divided by 2. I t is the same as total Displacement divided by total time. Average velocity is calculated when the body is in non-uniform motion (also when total displacement and time is not given). The formula is as follows:

u + v/2 = $v_{av}$

Average velocity = Average speed

during motion in a straight line. therefore, the above mentioned formula can be used for calculating average speed as well, when the direction is one and only the same, that is, during motion in a straight line. The S.I unit remains the same-

m/s.

Since velocity is vector, average VELOCITY is also vector. However, Average SPEED is scalar as speed is scalar. both can be equal only when the distance = displacement and when they are following the same direction of motion.
