A person travelling on a straight line moves with a uniform velocity `v_1` for some time and with uniform velocity `v_2` for the next equal time. The average velocity v is given by

A

` V= ( v_1+v_2) /( 2) `

B

` v = sqrt (v_1v_2) `

C

` (2)/(v) =(1)/(v_1) +(1)/(v_2) `

D

` (1)/(v) =(1)/(v_1) +(1)/(v_2) `

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Average velocity =` ( v_1t+v_2t)/(2t) =(v_1+v_2)/(2) `
