    Direction: Read the passage carefully and answer the following questions. A dancer is demonstrating dance steps along a straight line. The position-time graph of the dancer is given here.
     
    The average speed for the dance step depicted by CD is

    A) \[1\text{ }m\text{ }{{s}^{-1}}\]                  

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

    C) \[\text{2}\text{.75 m }{{\text{s}}^{\text{-1}}}\]    

    D) \[\text{0}\text{.89 m }{{\text{s}}^{\text{-1}}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Distance covered for dance step \[\text{CD=4m}\] Time taken for CD is greater than 1 s but less than 2s. Since, average speed\[\text{=}\frac{\text{total distance}}{\text{total time}}\] Therefore, average speed is less than \[4\text{ }m\text{ }{{s}^{-1}}\] but greater than\[\text{2m}{{\text{s}}^{\text{-1}}}\]. Hence, option (C) is correct.
