Question

A body goes from A to B with a velocity of 40 kmh–1 and returns from Bto A with a velocity of 60 kmh–1. What is the average velocity of the body during the whole journey?

Solution

Correct option is

Zero

Since the net displacement is zero, the average velocity of the body is also zero.
