(i) Yes; when an object is projected vertically upwards and it returns back to its initial position, the average velocity becomes zero but average speed is not zero.

(ii) Yes; on circular path, a particle moves with uniform speed, then its velocity remains changing each moment i.e. variable.

(iii) No; on being velocity constant, its magnitude as well as direction both remain unchanged.
