JEE MainPhysicsMotion in A Straight LineMCQ+4 / −1
A person travels distance with velocity and then distance with velocity in the same direction. The average velocity of the person is , then the relation between and will be.
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: D
-
Given:
- First distance with velocity
- Second distance with velocity
- Both are in the same direction
-
Average velocity formula:
Since motion is in the same direction, total displacement is
-
Time taken in each part:
- For first part,
- For second part,
So total time is
-
Compute average velocity:
Factor out from denominator:
Cancel :
-
Rearranging,
-
Check options:
- A: ❌
- B: ❌ (this is not valid for equal distances)
- C: ❌
- D: ✅
Therefore, the correct relation is So, the correct option is D.
