You calculate a rockets average velocity the same way you calculate the average velocity of anything else, a car, a running dog, or a stick floating on a stream. Velocity equals distance divided by time. It does not matter if your rocket traveled five thousand kilometers in one hour or if your car traveled 30 miles in one hour even if it stopped for gas along the way, you use the same formula.

What two pieces of information are required to calculate average velocity?
Time and velocity
What is instantaneous velocity of a body in terms of its average velocity?
The instantaneous velocity is the limit of the average velocity, as the time interval tends to zero. If you are not familiar with limits, basically you make the time interval very small and calculate the average velocity.
How do calculate average velocity?
Divide the net displacement by the time of travel.
Can calculate average acceleration of an obj ect given change in velocity with respect to time?
Acceleration is the derivative of the velocity expression. If you have an equation for velocity, simply take the derivative of it and you will have an equation for the average acceleration.
How do you calculate moving charges?
I guess that would depend on what you want to calculate (the charge? the velocity? the average energy of the charges?), and what information is given.

How do you calculate the height of the average velocities?
It isn't clear what you mean by the "height of a velocity".
Calculate average velocity and average speed?
sharon sprinter changes her speed from 4.5m/s to 7.5m/s in the middle 1.5 seconds of a 100m race. what is her average velocity for this time period?
What is the formula used to calculate the velocity of an object?
The average velocity in a particular direction = distance travelled in that direction / time taken. Velocity is a vector so the direction is important. If I go from A to B and then return to A my average velocity will be zero. My speed, on the other hand, will not be zero.
How do you calculate moving charges?
I guess that would depend on what you want to calculate (the charge? the velocity? the average energy of the charges?), and what information is given.
Why can you only calculate a stone's average speed during its fall?
That is just not true! If you can calculate its average speed you should be able to calculate its speed at any point in time during its flight, including its final velocity.
How can you get average velocity?
You can calculate average speed by dividing the total distance travelled by the total time of travel. To go from speed to velocity, you would also need to determine the vector (direction of travel).
How do you know something is moving faster than some other object?
Calculate the average velocity for the objects.
How do you calculate average thrust?
If you are talking about rockets: T.ave = ((Isp)(delta Weight.ave))/(delta time.ave) That's one way to find it.
