A)erage )elocity depends on displacement, which is a )ector quantity. Since the displacements
are not the same, the a)erage )elocities are not the same.

Statement:
(b) Answers may )ary. Sample answer: The truck turned around at one point during its trip. At
the end, it was only 1/ km away from where it started. As a result, the magnitude of the a)erage
)elocity is quite low compared to the a)erage speed.
