A man walks on a straight road from his home to a market 2.5 km away with a speed of 5 km h ^-1 . Finding the market closed, he instantly turns and walks back home with a speed of 7.5 km h^-1 . What is the average speed of the man over the interval of time (i) 0 to 30 min, (ii) 0 to 50 min, (Hi) 0 to 40. min?
