    A boy takes 5 seconds to reach each point from A to B, B to C and C to D as shown in the diagram. If AB = BC = CD = 20 m then which of the following information is correct when the boy reaches point D from point A?

    A)
    Velocity \[(m\text{ }{{s}^{-1}})\] Speed \[(m\text{ }{{s}^{-1}})\]
    4 4

    B)
    Velocity \[(m\text{ }{{s}^{-1}})\] Speed \[(m\text{ }{{s}^{-1}})\]
    1.33 1.33
                   

    C)
    Velocity \[(m\text{ }{{s}^{-1}})\] Speed \[(m\text{ }{{s}^{-1}})\]
    4 1.33
                   

    D)
    Velocity \[(m\text{ }{{s}^{-1}})\] Speed \[(m\text{ }{{s}^{-1}})\]
    1.33 4

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Total distance = 60 m Displacement = 20 m Total time = 15 s Speed\[=\frac{60}{15}=4m\,\,{{s}^{-1}};\] Velocity \[=\frac{20}{15}=1.33m\,\,{{s}^{-1}}\]
