Vedclass · Answer

(A) When an object moves along a straight path in a single direction without changing its direction, the magnitude of its displacement is equal to the total distance traveled.Since Average Velocity = $\frac{	ext{Total Displacement}}{	ext{Total Time}}$ and Average Speed = $\frac{	ext{Total Distance}}{	ext{Total Time}}$, and given that Displacement = Distance in this specific case, the ratio of average velocity to average speed is $1:1$.

What is the numerical ratio of average velocity to average speed of an object when it is moving along a straight path?
