The figure gives the \((x\text-t)\) plot of a particle in a one-dimensional motion. Three different equal intervals of time are shown. The signs of average velocity for each of the intervals \(1,\) \(2\) and \(3,\) respectively are:
                       

1. \(-,-,+\) 2. \(+,-,+\)
3. \(-,+,+\) 4. \(+,+,-\)

If a body travels some distance in a given time interval, then for that time interval, its:

1. Average speed  ≥  |Average velocity|
2. |Average velocity|  ≥  Average speed
3. Average speed < |Average velocity|
4. |Average velocity| must be equal to average speed.

A car moves from \(X\) to \(Y\) with a uniform speed \(v_u\) and returns to \(X\) with a uniform speed \(v_d.\) The average speed for this round trip is:

1. \(\dfrac{2 v_{d} v_{u}}{v_{d} + v_{u}}\) 2. \(\sqrt{v_{u} v_{d}}\)
3. \(\dfrac{v_{d} v_{u}}{v_{d} + v_{u}}\) 4. \(\dfrac{v_{u} + v_{d}}{2}\)

A vehicle travels half the distance \(L\) with speed \(v_1\) and the other half with speed \(v_2,\) then its average speed is:

1. \(\dfrac{v_{1} + v_{2}}{2}\) 2. \(\dfrac{2 v_{1} + v_{2}}{v_{1} + v_{2}}\)
3. \(\dfrac{2 v_{1} v_{2}}{v_{1} + v_{2}}\) 4. \(\dfrac{L \left(\right. v_{1} + v_{2} \left.\right)}{v_{1} v_{2}}\)

A particle moving in a straight line covers half the distance with a speed of \(3~\text{m/s}\). The other half of the distance is covered in two equal time intervals with speeds of \(4.5~\text{m/s}\) and \(7.5~\text{m/s}\) respectively. The average speed of the particle during this motion is:

1. \(4.0~\text{m/s}\) 2. \(5.0~\text{m/s}\)
3. \(5.5~\text{m/s}\) 4. \(4.8~\text{m/s}\)
