(FALSE) The statement is False.
In one-dimensional motion with uniform velocity,the average velocity is equal to the instantaneous velocity at any point in time.
Even in non-uniform motion,the average velocity over an interval can be equal to the instantaneous velocity at a specific moment within that interval,so the statement that they are always unequal is incorrect.
