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

उत्तर
`"Average speed"="Total distance covered"/"Total time taken"`
`"Average velocity"="Displacement"/"Total time taken"`
If the total distance covered by an object is the same as its displacement, then its average speed would be equal to its average velocity.
