$A$ particle starts from rest and traverses a distance $l$ with uniform acceleration,then moves uniformly over a further distance $2l$ and finally comes to rest after moving a further distance $3l$ under uniform retardation. Assuming the entire motion to be rectilinear,the ratio of the average speed over the journey to the maximum speed on its way is: (in $/5$)

$A$ car moves in the positive $Y$-direction with velocity $v$ proportional to the distance travelled $y$ as $v(y) \propto y^\beta$,where $\beta$ is a positive constant. The car covers a distance $L$ with average velocity $\langle v \rangle$ proportional to $L$ as $\langle v \rangle \propto L^{1/3}$. The constant $\beta$ is given as:

$A$ car starts from rest and moves with a constant acceleration of $5 \,m/s^2$ for $10 \,s$ before the driver applies the brake. It then decelerates for $5 \,s$ before coming to rest. The average speed of the car over the entire journey is: (in $\,m/s$)

Statement $(I)$: An object subjected to velocities $\overrightarrow{v_1}$ and $\overrightarrow{v_2}$ has a resultant velocity with magnitude $|\vec{v}| = |\overrightarrow{v_1}| + |\overrightarrow{v_2}|$.
Statement $(II)$: The magnitude of displacement is either less than or equal to the path length of an object between two points.
Statement $(III)$: The instantaneous acceleration is the limiting value of the average acceleration as the time interval approaches zero.
Which of the following is correct?

$A$ car travels from $A$ to $B$ (without changing direction). During the first part of the journey,its average speed is $V_1$,and for the second part of the journey,its average speed is $V_2$. The ratio of the path length of the second part to the path length of the first part is $\sqrt{\frac{V_2}{V_1}}$. In this case,the average speed of the total path is the ....... of the average speeds of both parts. Choose the correct option.
