What is the average velocity if a rolling ball moves from 3cm to -4.1cm during the time from 3.2s to 5.0?

Velocity = distance final - distance initial/ time final - time initial
V = -4.1 cm - 3 cm/5.0 s - 3.0 s
= -7.1/2
velocity = -3.6 m/s

The rate at which an object moves is called?
Velocity
Can the average velocity of a car and average speed be the same?
Yes, if the car moves in only one direction.
Average velocity of a particle is zero but not its average speed .. is it possible?
Yes - for example, if an object moves in a circle.
How long will it take for Apollo 11 to travel to the sun if it moves at the same average velocity from earth to the sun?
It would depend on what that velocity was.
What is the average velocity when a person travelling moves with uniform velocity v1 for sometime and with next uniform velocity v2 for next equal time?
(v1 + v2)/2
What is the overall rate of speed an object moves?
speedIn physics:If the direction doesn't matter, the word "speed" is used.If the direction DOES matter, the word "velocity" is used.
What does positive velocity means?
is moves with a constant velocity in the positive direction......
Can speed and velocity be the same?
No, they are two very different terms.Velocity describes the speed and the direction of an objects movement.Keep in mid that average speed is distance over time.Average speed describes how far an object moves during a certain amount of time.Sometimes people may use the terms fast or slow referring to speed.
When an object moves with inconstant velocity does its average velocity differ from its instantaneous velocity?
Generally it is a Yes. Instantaneous velocity is the exact velocity at a particular time in the course of the movement. However, average velocity is the average of all the instantaneous velocity over a period of time. It is also known as speed in everyday life. As a result, the movement of an object over a time period under varying velocity denotes a varying instantaneous velocity which could be different from the average velocity. It is however, possible that the instantaneous velocity equates to the average velocity at a certain point over the duration of movement. For example, a ball is traveling at instantaneous velocity of 99m/s at t=1s , 100m/s at t=2s and 101m/s at t=3s. the average velocity over the 3s period is hence 100m/s which coincides with the instantaneous speed at t=2s.
What is the average velocity between 12.00 and 15.00 seconds?
To find average velocity, you need to know the displacement. If you knew displacement, average velocity would be found by: V = Displacement / time
Can average velocity of a moving body can be zero?
It actually can. Say a car moves north at 50 miles per hour for 4 hours. Then it moves south at 50 miles per hour for 4 hours. In the end, it returns to it's starting point. The average velocity over that 8 hour period is then zero, because it really went nowhere.
When an object moves in a circular path will the velocity change will there be acceleration?
When an object moves in a circular path, the velocity will change and the there will be acceleration.
