Solution

The correct option is C
Car B is the slowest.
The distance travelled by car A, B, C, and D in 't' seconds are marked as $d_{A}, d_{B}, d_{C}, a n d d_{D}$ on the distance-time graph.
Here,
$d_{C} > d_{D} > d_{A} > d_{B}$

We know that, the distance travelled per unit time is defined as the speed. Here in the given time 't', the distance travelled by the car B is $d_{B}$ which is the least among the distance travelled by other cars in the same time.
Thus, the speed of the car B is the least among all cars. So it is the slowest among all.
