Vedclass · Answer

(C) Average velocity is defined as the ratio of total displacement to total time taken $(v_{avg} = \frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t})$.$1$. It does not provide information about the actual distance covered by the object,as distance depends on the path taken,whereas displacement only depends on the initial and final positions.$2$. It does not describe the specific path of motion taken by the object between the initial and final points.$3$. It does not provide information about the instantaneous velocities of the object at different positions along the path.
