Question

An object moves x distance with speed \(v_1\) and next \(x\) distance with speed \(v_2\). The average velocity \(v\) is related to \(v_1\) and \(v_2\) as

• A. \(v = \frac{(v_1 + v_2)}{2}\)
• B. \(\frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{v_1} + \frac{1}{v_2}\)
• C. \(v = \frac{(2v_1 v_2)}{(v_1 + v_2)}\)
• D. \(v = \frac{(v_1 - v_2)}{2}\)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The correct option is (C): \(v = \frac{(2v_1 v_2)}{(v_1 + v_2)}\)
