If an object changes direction in its journey, then the average speed will be greater than the magnitude of the average velocity. Speed is a scalar, and average velocity is a vector. Average velocity indicates direction and can be represented as a negative number when the displacement is in the negative direction.

9 paź 2023 · The magnitude of average velocity is equal to the average speed of the object in consideration. Since velocity is just speed with the direction of motion, the magnitude of the vector velocity will just be its scalar quantity which is speed.
Velocity (v) is a vector quantity that measures displacement (or change in position, Δs) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation v = Δs/Δt. Speed (or rate, r) is a scalar quantity that measures the distance traveled (d) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation r = d/Δt.
28 maj 2024 · Calculating Average Velocity. The formula for calculating average velocity ( v¯¯¯) is given by: v¯¯¯ = Δx Δt. where: Δx is the displacement, which is the change in position of the object. Δt is the time interval over which the displacement occurs.
4 kwi 2023 · Average Velocity Formula. The physical quantity that is numerically equal (i.e. equal in magnitude) to the ratio of the displacement to the time interval is the average velocity of motion over a given period of time. Mathematically it is given by the formula, $$v_{avg}=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}=\frac{x_2-x_1}{t_2-t_1}$$ In this equation:
20 lut 2022 · Explain the relationships between instantaneous velocity, average velocity, instantaneous speed, average speed, displacement, and time. Calculate velocity and speed given initial position, initial time, final position, and final time.
velocity = displacement/time and average velocity = initial velocity + final velocity/2. Then in the above question, we are to find the average velocity but then still why is the displacement/time formula is being used?
