When is the average velocity is equal to the instantaneous velocity?

∙ 13y ago
Average velocity equals the average speed if (and only if) the motion is in the same direction. If not, the average speed, being the average of the absolute value of the velocity, will be larger.

∙ 13y agoAt a small time interval, the average velocity is approximately equal to the instantaneous velocity.
However, the values of the average velocity and the instantaneous velocity approach each other , as the length of the time interval is decreased more and more.

When is the instantaneous velocity equal to avg velocity?
Mainly, when the velocity doesn't change. Also, in the case of varying velocity, the instantaneous velocity might, for a brief instant, be equal to the average velocity.
What will be the body said ----- velocities when average and instantaneous velocities are equal?
Uniform velocity
Does the slope of a position time graph represent average velocity or rate of change of velocity?
The tangent at a point on the position-time graph represents the instantaneous velocity. 1. The tangent is the instantaneous slope. 2. Rather than "average" velocity, the slope gives you "instantaneous" velocity. The average of the instantaneous gives you average velocity.
Is instantaneous velocity a vector or a scalar?
Velocity is always a scalar, instantaneous or average doesn't matter.
When is an object's average velocity equal to its instantaneous velocity?
If the velocity is constant (i.e., there is no acceleration). Terminal velocity is an example, although any constant velocity would fit this description.
When average velocity and average speed is equal?
For the instantaneous value of average velocity, average speed and average velocity are equal.
When will the average velocity be equal to instantaneous velocity?
In uniform motion.
When is the instantaneous velocity equal to avg velocity?
Mainly, when the velocity doesn't change. Also, in the case of varying velocity, the instantaneous velocity might, for a brief instant, be equal to the average velocity.
When average velocity is equal to its instantaneous velocity acceleration?
you are still. motion is at rest.
Is ta possible for an object to have average velocity equal to its instantaneous velocity?
Yes, yes it is
Can the average speed ever equal the instantaneous speed?
When there is no acceleration or when there is constant acceleration. When either of these cases is present, the graph of velocity versus time will be linear. When there is linear velocity, the average velocity will equal the instantaneous velocity at any point on the graph.
What will be the body said ----- velocities when average and instantaneous velocities are equal?
Uniform velocity
Does the slope of a position time graph represent average velocity or rate of change of velocity?

What is the relationship between average velocity and instantaneous velocity?
The average velocity over an time interval is the average of the instantaneous velocities for all instants over that period. Conversely, as the time interval is reduced, the average velocity comes closer and closer to the instantaneous velocity.
When is speed equal to the magnitude of velocity?
That is the case when you are talking about instantaneous speed and velocity - or when the velocity is constant. In the case of an average speed and velocity, this relation does not hold.
Can the average velocity of the body be the same as instantaneous velocity?
Yes, the average velocity of the body can be same as the instantaneous velocity at a small time interval.The values of the average and the instantaneous velocities approach each other , as the length of time interval is decreased.
When is an object's average velocity equal to its instantaneous velocity?
If the velocity is constant (i.e., there is no acceleration). Terminal velocity is an example, although any constant velocity would fit this description.
