A car is moving along x-axis. As shown in figure it moves from O to P in 18 seconds and return from P to Q in 6 second. What are the average velocity and average speed of the car in going from
(i) O to P
(ii) from O to P and back to Q

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

O to P, Average velocity `=20ms^(-1)`
(ii) O to P and back to Q
Average velocity `=10ms^(-1)`
Average speed `=20ms^(-1)`
