When a particle moves with constant velocity its average velocity, its instantaneous velocity and its speed all are equal. Is this statement true or false ?

When a particle moves with constant velocity, its average velocity, its instantaneous velocity and its speed are all equal. Comment on this statement.

A : It is not possible to have constant velocity and variable acceleration. R : Accelerated body cannot have constant velocity.

Assertion: When a particle moves with constant velocity its average velocity, its insttantaneous velocity and its speed are all equal in magnitude. Reason: If the average velocity of a particle moving on a straight line is zero in a time interval, then it is possible that the instantaneous velocity is never zero in the internal.

Assertion : If a particle moves with a constant velocity, then angular momentum of this particle about any point remains constant. Reason : Angular momentum has the units of Plank's constant.
