$A$ point traversed half of the distance with a velocity $v_0$. The remaining part of the distance was covered with velocity $v_1$ for half the time and with velocity $v_2$ for the other half of the time. The mean velocity of the point averaged over the whole time of motion is

If a car covers $2/5^{th}$ of the total distance with speed $v_1$ and $3/5^{th}$ of the total distance with speed $v_2$,then the average speed is:

$A$ particle moving along a straight line covers the first half of the distance with a speed of $3 \, m \, s^{-1}$. The other half of the distance is covered in two equal time intervals with speeds of $4.5 \, m \, s^{-1}$ and $7.5 \, m \, s^{-1}$ respectively. The average speed of the particle during the motion is:

Assertion $(A)$: The angle between acceleration and velocity of a body in one-dimensional motion is always zero. Reason $(R)$: One-dimensional motion is along a straight line.

$Assertion$: $A$ body with constant acceleration always moves along a straight line.
$Reason$: $A$ body with constant acceleration may not speed up.
