    =26.92 m/s

    Explanation:

    Speed is calculated as a ratio of the total distance covered (It is directionless) to the total time taken to cover the distance.

    Average speed = total distance/total time

    =x/t

    Total distance from the question = 3500m

    Total time taken to cover the above distance = 2*60 + 10=130 Seconds

    Therefore, average speed = 3500m/130 s

    =26.92 m/s
