Problem

A particle starts from rest and traverses a distance 100m with a uniform acceleration and then moves uniformly with the acquired velocity over a further distance 200m. Finally, it comes to rest after moving through a further distance 300m under uniform retardation. Assuming the entire path a straight line, find the ratio of the average speed over the journey to maximum speed on the way
