Given below are two statements:
Assertion (A): If the average velocity of a particle over a certain time interval is zero, it is possible that the instantaneous velocity of the particle is never zero during that interval.
Reason (R): For a particle moving along a straight line, if its average velocity over a time interval is zero, then there must be at least one instant within that interval when the instantaneous velocity is zero.
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is True but (R) is False.
4. Both (A) and (R) are False.

Given below are two statements: 
Assertion (A): The average velocity of the object over an interval of time is either smaller than or equal to the average speed of the object over the same interval.
Reason (R): Displacement is the shortest distance between two points.
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is True but (R) is False.
4. Both (A) and (R) are False.

Pick the correct statements:

a. Average speed of a particle in a given time is never less than the magnitude of the average velocity.
b. It is possible to have a situation in which \(|\frac{d \vec{v}}{d t}| \neq 0\) but \(\frac{d}{d t}|\vec{v}|=0.\)
c. The average velocity of a particle is zero in a time interval. It is possible that the instantaneous velocity is never zero in the interval.
d. The average velocity of a particle moving in a straight line is zero in a time interval. It is possible that the instantaneous velocity is never zero in the interval. (Infinite accelerations are not allowed)


Choose the correct option:

1. (a), (b) and (c)
2. (b), (c) and (d)
3. (a) and (b)
4. (b) and (c)
