पर्याय
The magnitude of the velocity of a particle is equal to its speed.
The magnitude of average velocity in an interval is equal to its average speed in that interval.
It is possible to have a situation in which the speed of a particle is always zero but the average speed is not zero.
It is possible to have a situation in which the speed of the particle is never zero but the average speed in an interval is zero.
उत्तर
The magnitude of the velocity of a particle is equal to its speed.
(a) Velocity being a vector quantity has magnitude as well as direction, and magnitude of velocity is called speed.
(b) Average velocity = \[\frac{\text{ Total displacement } }{\text{ Total time taken } }\]
Average speed = \[\frac{\text{ Total distance travelled } }{\text{ Total time taken } }\]
Distance \[\geq\] Displacement
∴ Average speed \[\geq\] Average velocity
The magnitude of average velocity in an interval is not always equal to its average speed in that interval.
(c) If speed is always zero, then the distance travelled is always zero. Hence, the total distance travelled and the average speed will be zero.
(d) If the speed of a particle is never zero, the distance travelled by the particle is never zero. Hence, the average speed will not be zero.
