NEET (UG) 2023 — Question 24

A vehicle travels half the distance with speed ϑ\vartheta and the remaining distance with speed 2ϑ2 \vartheta. Its average speed is:

  1. Option A:

    2ϑ3\frac{2 \vartheta}{3}

  2. Option B:

    4ϑ3\frac{4 \vartheta}{3}

    Correct
  3. Option C:

    3ϑ4\frac{3 \vartheta}{4}

  4. Option D:

    ϑ3\frac{\vartheta}{3}

Answer: B

Step-by-step solution

v_{\text {avg }} & =\frac{2 v_1 v_2}{v_1+v_2} \\ & =\frac{2 \times v \times 2 v}{v+2 v} \\ & =\frac{4 v}{3} \end{aligned}$$
