Statement I: The average velocity of the body may be equal to its instantaneous velocity.
Statement II: For a given time interval of a given motion, average veocity is single valued while average speed can have many values.

A

Statement I is true, Statement II is true, Statement II is a correct explanation for Statement I.

B

Statemnt I is true, Statement II is true, Statement II is true, Statement II is false.

C

Statement I is true, Statement II is false.

D

Statement I is false, Statement II is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
The average velocity of the body may be equal tio tis instantaneous velocity, becoause instantaneus velocity can take any value.
For a given time interval of a given motion, both average velocity and average speed can have only one value as displacement and distance will have single values.
