$A$ passenger arriving in a new town wishes to go from the station to a hotel located $10 \;km$ away on a straight road from the station. $A$ dishonest cabman takes him along a circuitous path $23 \;km$ long and reaches the hotel in $28 \;min$. What is
$(a)$ the average speed of the taxi,
$(b)$ the magnitude of average velocity? Are the two equal?

$A$ car travels from $A$ to $B$ (without changing direction). During the first part of the journey,its average speed is $V_1$,and for the second part of the journey,its average speed is $V_2$. The ratio of the path length of the second part to the path length of the first part is $\sqrt{\frac{V_2}{V_1}}$. In this case,the average speed of the total path is the ....... of the average speeds of both parts. Choose the correct option.
