The average velocity is zero
Given:
A man leaves home for a cycle ride and comes back home after a half-an-hour rise covering a distance of 1 km.
To find:
The average velocity
Here,
The man comes back home. So, displacement is 0 and time take = 1/2 hour
Thus, option (d) zero is correct
Distance = 1 km
Time taken = 0.5 hours
Displacement = 0 km
As the man comes back to home (initial position), hence the initial position and final position are same. Thus displacement is zero.
