According to galelio., he told that a person who is at rest, will remain at rest and a person in motion will remain in motion until some external force is applied. But if a person lying at rest on his bed wants to get up, he can easily do that and he walks off even though no extra external force was applied. How was he able to do so?

Q. Pankaj went to the post-office at the speed of 60 km/hr. While returning to his home, he covered half of the distance at the speed of 10 km/hr, but suddenly he realized that he was getting late so he increased the speed and reached the home by covering rest half of the distance at the speed of 30 km/hr. The average speed of the Pankaj in the whole length of journey is :
