Under what condition (s) is the magnitude of average velocity of an object is equal to its average speed ?

Assertion: Average speed of a particle in a given time interval is never less than the magnitude of the average velocity. Reason: The magnitude of the velocity (instantaneous velocity) of a particle is equal to its speed.

Assertion: The average velocity of a particle is zero in a time interval. It is possible that the instantaneous acceleration is never zero in the interval. Reason: The magnitude of average velocity in an interval is equal to its average speed in that interval.
