Solution

The correct option is:C

Given Data:

Total Distance, =20m

Total Time Taken, =20sec

AverageSpeed=TotalDistanceTotalTimeTaken=20m20sec=1ms1


Maximum speed:

From figure it is clear that maximum distance, =20m

Time taken to achieve the maximum distance, between t=10sec to t=18sec

And distance covered at this time, 20m4m=16m

So, Maximumspeed=MaximumDistancetimeinterval=16m(1810)sec=16m8sec=2ms1
