Best Answer

Yes. As long as the inital and end positions are different, you will have a nonzero average velocity.

Can a body have nonzero average speed but have zero average velocity give example?

An object moving in a circular path at constant speed will have a non-zero average speed and zero average velocity since velocity is a vector parameter,


Can you have zero displacement and nonzero velocity?

i will give u an illustration, consider an object projected (thrown)with some initial vertical velocity from the ground such that it traces a open downward parabolicpath, in that path the vertical displacement of the body from the point of projection to the point where it strikes the ground is equal to zero,but it have some velocity.


How does vector calculus apply in fluid mechanics?

The velocity at each point in the fluid is a vector. If the fluid is compressible, the divergence of the velocity vector is nonzero in general. In a vortex the curl is nonzero.


Can a body have zero velocity with nonzero accelaration?

Yes, but only for an instant.


Is it possible that a body has zero speed and nonzero velocity?

No because velocity defined as speed in a given direction so if speed is 0 then velocity must also be 0


What happens to an object in motion when it experiences a nonzero net force?

its velocity will change by accelerating in the direction of the force


When average velocity and average speed is equal?

For the instantaneous value of average velocity, average speed and average velocity are equal.


Which encoding type always has a nonzero average amplitude?

polar


How is velocity different from average speeed?

Velocity is speed and its direction. Average velocity is average speed and its direction.


Can an object have zero velocity and nonzero acceleration?

Yes. An object moving at constant velocity has zero acceleration. The constant velocity van be any constant including zero velocity. Mathematics acceleration a=dv/dt = 0. Solving this gives v = constant.


Can object have zero acceleration and nonzero velocity at the same time.give example?

Yes, for example, a car moving at constant speed.


Why can velocity be negative but nonzero speed is always positive?

speed is a scalar quantity with magnitude only but no direction; velocity is a vector with both magnitude (speed) AND direction, which could be positive or negative
