A student is studying the motion of a particle along a straight line. a. (i) Define average velocity of the particle for a finite time interval. b. (ii) Define instantaneous velocity of the particle at a specific instant. c. (iii) State any two differences between the two quantities defined in parts (i) and (ii). d. (iv) With the help of a neat labelled sketch of a displacement–time graph, explain how instantaneous velocity can be obtained graphically.
