Assertion (A) : For a given time interval, average velocity and average speed can have different values.
Reason (R) : Speed is a scalar quantity whereas velocity is a vector quantity.

A train starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at a rate of 2 m s-2 for 10 s. It then maintains a constant speed for 200 s. The brakes are then applied and the train is uniformly retarded and comes to rest in 50 s.
Find —
(i) the maximum velocity reached,
(ii) the retardation in the last 50 s,
(iii) the total distance travelled, and
(iv)the average velocity of the train.
Assertion (A) : The displacement of a body can be zero even if the distance travelled by it is not zero.
Reason (R) : Displacement is the shortest distance from the initial to the final position of body.
