NEET Physics Speed & Velocity Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): Instantaneous speed at an instant is equal to the magnitude of the instantaneous velocity at that instant.
Reason (R): Average speed over a finite interval of time is always greater than or equal to the magnitude of the average velocity.
Both A and R are true, and R explains A.
Both A and R are true, but R does not explain A.
A is true, but R is false.
A is false.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The assertion is true because instantaneous speed is the magnitude of instantaneous velocity. The reason is true but does not explain the assertion as it pertains to average values over a time interval.
