NEET Physics Speed & Velocity Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Average Speed | (i) Total displacement over time interval |
| (b) Average Velocity | (ii) Total path length over time interval |
| (c) Instantaneous Speed | (iii) Speed at a specific instant |
| (d) Limiting Average Velocity | (iv) Average speed as time approaches zero |
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i
a-iii, b-ii, c-i, d-iv
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Average speed is defined as the total path length divided by the time interval (NCERT, Chunk 2). Average velocity is the total displacement over the same time interval. Instantaneous speed refers to the speed at a specific instant, while the limiting average velocity approaches instantaneous velocity as the time interval approaches zero.
