All buses and cars these days are fitted with a speedometer,which shows the velocity of the vehicle. $A$ device called odometer records the distance moved by the vehicle. If the reading on the odometer of a vehicle in the beginning of a trip and after $40 \text{ minutes}$ were $1048 \text{ km}$ and $1096 \text{ km}$ respectively,calculate its average velocity. Will the reading on the speedometer show this velocity when the vehicle is moving? Support your answer with reason.
