PhysicsMotion in a Straight LineJEE Main

A boy begins to walk eastward along a street in front of his house, and the graph of his displacement from home (distance east, in metre, vs time, in min) is shown: rising linearly from 0 to 40 m over 0–5 min, constant at 40 m from 5–10 min, then declining past zero to about m by around min. His average speed for the whole time interval is nearly

Answer: (B)

Solution

Distance covered: rise ( to min) m; flat segment ( to min) m additional; decline ( to min) from m to m is a monotonic decrease
