    An object travels 24 m with a speed of 4 m/s and then another 32 m with speed of 8 m/s . The average speed of the object is

    A) 6 m/s               

    B) 4 m/s

    C) 5.6m/s             

    D) 6.5m/s

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] Time travel to cover 24 m with speed 4 m/s,
    \[{{t}_{1}}=\frac{24}{4}=6\operatorname{s}\]
    Time travel to cover 32 m with speed 8 m/s,
    \[{{t}_{2}}=\frac{32}{8}=4\operatorname{s}\]
    \[\operatorname{Average} speed=\frac{Total distance}{Total time}=\frac{24+32}{{{t}_{1}}+{{t}_{2}}}\]
    \[=\frac{56}{6+4}=5.6\operatorname{m}/s\]
