The magnitude of the average velocity is known as the speed of the body.

The average of the velocity in terms of the distance and time is defined as,


v_(av)=\frac{ds_{}}{dt}

where ds is the displacement and dt is the change in time.

Thus, the average velocity is not just the distance.

Hence, the false is the correct answer.
