Solution

The correct option is C


From the hint, we can see that, we need to find a point 't' such that slope of the tangent at the point equals the slope of the line joining the origin and the point.

Therefore closest answer is t3.

Extra:-

Average Velocity = displacementtime taken = gx

From the figure we can see that average velocity is equal to slope of OA.
