Question

What's the difference between instantaneous and average velocity

Answer 1

The average velocity is simply the distance traveled divided by the time it took whereas instantaneous velocity is the speed at a precise moment in time. Think about if you're driving through town. You have to stop and start meaning that at some points throughout the trip you were going at different speeds. You could look at how fast you were traveling when you came upon a stop sign. (Instantaneous) (Hopefully 0 mph) However, you could say generally how fast you went through down by dividing the total distance you traveled by the time that passed. (Average)

Answer 2

What's the difference between instantaneous and average velocity? How do you calculate both of them? Also discuss under what circumstances both velocities become same

Answer 3

backland this is may complete question plz give me a correct ans about 3 topic

Answer 4

Instantaneous - velocity taken at a specific moment in time.
Average - total distance traveled / time passed

Do you see how there's room for you to speed up or slow down and it not be shown in the average?

Answer 5

Both velocities would be the same if the speed remained constant.
