as the moving object covers some distance in some interval of time and average speed is obtained by dividing the total distance travelled by total time taken

Can average speed of a moving object be zerogive an example?

No, it can't. Average VELOCITY can be zero, though.


Whether an object is moving or not depends on its?

velocity or speed and direction of motion. If an object's velocity is zero, it is considered to be at rest. If an object's velocity is non-zero, it is moving.


Why is speed always non-zero?

It can be zero, but that means that the object is not moving.


When an object is at rest what is speed?

0 m/s


An example of zero acceleration would be what?

If you are moving at a speed of ceratin speed and there is no force trying to slow you down, and there is no force trying to speed you up. Then there is zero acceleration. An example would be : an object in out in space, if you throw a object away from you the object will float away, since there is no force working on the object after you throw it the object is moving away in a locked speed from you, but have zero acceleration because there is no force affecting the object


Can an object be moving if acceleration is zero?

Yes. Acceleration is defined as a change of speed and/or direction of motion. If the speed and direction of motion are constant, then there is no acceleration.


What is the speed of an object at rest?

The speed of an object at rest is 0 m/s. When an object is not moving, its speed is considered to be zero.


Average speed is the rate at which an object is moving at a given instant?

No. Average speed is the rate an object is moving measured over more than an instant, such as one second, one minute, or something like that. Instantaneous speed, however, is the limit of the average speed as the interval of time approaches zero, i.e. at a given instant.


How the speed - time graph of an object that is not moving?

If an object is not moving, its speed-time graph would be a horizontal line at the zero speed level. This is because the speed of the object is constant at zero, indicating that it is not experiencing any motion or changes in speed over time.


Can the average speed of a body be zero and can the average velocity of a moving body be zero?

Since speed is a scalar quantity, the only way the average speed can be zero is if the instantaneous speed is at all times zero, making it not a moving body, so no on the average speed. The average velocity, on the other hand, can easily be zero. The simplest example is you running in a circle.


If an object is not moving does it have speed?

In English, no. In math, yes. Zero.


When is the speed zero?

The speed is zero when an object is at rest or not moving. This can occur at any point during an object's motion when it changes direction or comes to a stop.
