Answer the following questions to make sure you do not hold any misconceptions about them. True or false 1. Average speed and average velocity are the same thing except that velocity has direction but speed does not. ( true / false ) 2. The average speed of a car cannot be zero once it has moved. ( true / false ) 3. The average velocity of a car is zero when it completes a circle. ( true / false ) 4. The car that travelled a longer distance within the same period of time must have a greater average velocity. ( true / false ) 5. The car that took a longer time to complete the same path (from one place to another) must have a smaller average velocity.

For a car travelling at an increasing speed, its average speed must be equal to the average value of its initial speed and βinal speed. ( true / false ) Calculations 7. A car travelled 10 m due north in 5 s. After that, it immediately travelled 40 m due east in 10 s. (a) What was its average speed for the whole trip? (b) What was the magnitude of its average velocity for the whole trip? 8. A car travels due west at 3 m s−1 for 15 s, and then immediately travels due south at 2 m s−1 for 10 s. (a) Find the average speed of the car.
