What is the difference between average speed and constant speed?
GeneralClass 12AllAnswered 27 Mar 2026
Answer
Constant speed means traveling at the same rate throughout the entire journey without speeding up or slowing down. Average speed is the overall rate calculated from total distance and time, even if the actual speed varied during the trip. For example, you might drive at 40 km/h, then 60 km/h, giving an average that differs from any constant speed.
