A person travelling on a straight line moves with a uniform velocity v1 for some time and with uniform velocity v2 for the next equal time. The average velocity is v given by 

(a) v =(v1+v2)/2

(b) v=√v1v2

(c) 2/v=1/v1+1/v2

(d) 1/v=1/v1+1/v2

(a) v = (v1 + v2)/2.

Explanation:

 Let t be the time related to each velocity. Total distance travelled =v1t+v2t. Total time taken=2t. Hence average velocity = v1t+v2t/2t  =(v1+v2)/2.
