NEET2023PhysicsMotion in One DimensionActual
A vehicle travels half the distance with speed v and the remaining distance with speed 2 v . Its average speed is:
Options
- A3 v 4
- Bv 3
- C2 v 3
- D4 v 3
Correct answer
D. 4 v 3
Step-by-step solution
Let the total distance travelled be d . Time taken in both part is, t 1 = d 2 v and t 2 = d 2 2 v . Now, average speed can be written as v a v g = d t 1 + t 2 = d d 2 v + d 4 v = 4 v 3
