Final answer:

d) Insufficient information to determine the average velocity without knowing the displacement.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the average velocity between
\(t = 2.00\) s and
\(t = 4.00\) s, you need the displacement and the time interval. The average velocity
(\(v_{\text{avg}}\)) is calculated as the change in position divided by the change in time.


\[ v_{\text{avg}} = (\Delta x)/(\Delta t) \]

Without information about the displacement, we cannot determine the sign of the velocity or whether it's positive, negative, or zero. Therefore, the correct answer is:

d) Insufficient information to determine.
