The velocity of a particle moving along the $x$-axis is given by $V = x^2 - 5x + 4$ (in $\text{m/s}$), where $x$ denotes the $x$-coordinate of the particle in metres. The magnitude of the acceleration of the particle when the velocity is zero is:

  • A
    $2 \text{ m/s}^2$
  • B
    $3 \text{ m/s}^2$
  • C
    Zero
  • D
    $1 \text{ m/s}^2$

$A$ 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 $m \ s^{-1}$)
