NEET Physics Speed & Velocity Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Average Speed | (i) Total path length divided by time interval |
| (b) Instantaneous Velocity | (ii) Limit of average velocity as time interval approaches zero |
| (c) Average Velocity | (iii) Total displacement divided by time interval |
| (d) Distance | (iv) Length of the path covered by an object |
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
a-iii, b-iv, c-i, d-ii
a-iv, b-iii, c-ii, d-i
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Average Speed is defined as the total path length divided by the time interval (i), while Instantaneous Velocity is the limit of average velocity as the time interval approaches zero (ii). Average Velocity is the total displacement divided by the time interval (iii), and Distance is simply the length of the path covered (iv). These definitions are essential in understanding motion in a straight line.
