Distinguish between average speed and average velocity.

Assertion : The average speed of an object is greater than or equal to the magnitude of the average velocity over a given time interval. Reason : The two are equal only if the path length is equal to the magnitude of displacement.

A man walks on a straight road from his home to market 2.5 km away with speed of 5 km/h Finding the market closed, he instantly turns and walks back with a speed of 7.5 km/h. What is the magnitude of average velocity and average speed of the man over the interval of time (i) 0 to 30 min (ii) 0 to 50 min (iii) 0 to 40 min ?

A particle is moving in a circle of radius 4 cm with constant speed of 1 cm//s. Find (a) time period of the particle. (b) average speed, average velocity and average acceleration in a time interval from t=0 to t = T/4. Here, T is the time period of the particle. Give only their magnitudes.

Assertion In circular motion, average speed and average velocity are never equal. Reason In any curvilinear path, these two are never equal.

Assertion: The magnitude of average velocity of the object over an interval of time is either smaller than or equal to the average speed of the object over the same interval. Reason: Path length (distance) is either equal or greater than the magnitude of displacement.

Can the instantaneous velocity of an object during a time interval ever be greater in magnitude than average celocity over the entire interval ? Can it be less?

Read each statement below carefully and state with reasons, with it is true or false : (a) The magnitude of vector is always a scalar. (b) Each component of a vector is always a scalar. (c) The total path length is always equal to the magnitude of the displacement vector of a particle. (d) The average speed of a particle (defined as total path length divided by the time taken to cover the path) is greater or equal to the magnitude of average velocity of the particle over the same interval of time. (e) three vectors not lying in a plane can never add up to give a null vector.

Under what condition is the magnitude of the average velocity of a particle moving in onbe dimension smaller than the average speed over same time interval?
