Distance, Displacement & Average Speed question from NEET 2023

Q9NEET 2023Easy

Distance, Displacement & Average Speed

A vehicle travels half the distance with speed $v$ and the remaining distance with speed $2v$ . Its average speed is:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

For equal distances, $v_{avg} = \frac{2v_1 v_2}{v_1 + v_2}$ .
$v_{avg} = \frac{2(v)(2v)}{v + 2v} = \frac{4v^2}{3v}$
So the answer is (b) $\frac{4v}{3}$ .
