(N/A) The magnitude of average velocity is always less than or equal to the average speed,i.e.,$\text{Average velocity} \leq \text{Average speed}$.
$(b)$ The distance covered by a particle in the $n^{th}$ second under constant acceleration $a$ is given by $d_n = v_0 + \frac{a}{2}(2n - 1)$.
$(c)$ The relative velocity of object $A$ with respect to object $B$ is given by $v_{AB} = v_A - v_B$.
