A person travels along a straight road for half the distance with velocity ${v_1}$ and the remaining half distance with velocity ${v_2}$ The average velocity is given by

  • A

    ${v_1}{v_2}$

  • B

    $\frac{{v_2^2}}{{v_1^2}}$

  • C

    $\frac{{{v_1} + {v_2}}}{2}$

  • D

    $\frac{{2{v_1}{v_2}}}{{{v_1} + {v_2}}}$
