Question

Which is the physical quantity used to measure the rate of motion of an object in a non-uniform motion?

  1. Average speed
  2. Speed
  3. Velocity
  4. Displacement 

hintHint:

Average speed 

The correct answer is: Average speed


    • In a non-uniform motion, average speed is the ratio of the total distance travelled within a given time interval.
    • We calculate it using,
    • Average speed = (total distance covered)/ (total time taken)
