$A$ cyclist traversed half the distance of a linear track with a velocity $10 \ m \ s^{-1}$. The remaining part of the track was covered with a velocity $v_1$ for half the time and a velocity $v_2$ for the other half of the time. If $v_1+v_2=20 \ m \ s^{-1}$, then the average velocity of the cyclist during the completion of the journey through the track is (in $m \ s^{-1}$)

  • A
    $30$
  • B
    $20$
  • C
    $10$
  • D
    $15$
