A particle starts moving along a straight line path with velocity 10m//s . After 5s the distance of the particle from the starting point is 50m . Which of the following statements about the nature of motion of the particle are correct?

A body travelling along a straight line traversed one third of the total distance with a velocity 4m/s. The remaining part of the distance was covered with a velocity 1 m/s for half the time and with velocity 3 m/s for the other half of time. The mean velocity averaged over the whole time of motion is :
