Solution

The correct option is C average velocity is 53 m/s
Given, v(t)=4tt2, we will check if the particle has changed its direction or not within the asked time interval, i.e. the time when velocity of the particle becomes zero.
4tt2=0 t=0,4 sec
Also, we know that
xfxi=t0v(t)dt=t0(4tt2)dt
xfxi=2t2t33
Let particle starts from origin i.e xi=0
So, at t=0,xf=0,
at t=4,xf=2×42433=96643=323 m
at t=5,xf=2×52533=1501253=253 m
Hence, average velocity is 253×5=53 m/s
