Problem

A cyclist covers a straight 600 m600\,\text{m} stretch of road in 2 min2\,\text{min} and then rests for 1 min1\,\text{min} at the end point. What is the cyclist’s average speed for the entire 3 min3\,\text{min} interval? (a) 5.0 m s−15.0\,\text{m\,s}^{-1} (b) 3.3 m s−13.3\,\text{m\,s}^{-1} (c) 2.0 m s−12.0\,\text{m\,s}^{-1} (d) 4.0 m s−14.0\,\text{m\,s}^{-1}
