Answer:

speed are different at different places

Step-by-step explanation:

because it's top speed is 50km/h,so it's initial speed may be less. when it covers some distance it's speed changes again. then we have given a mean speed .mean speed means sum of all speed divided by sum of total time.so the mean speed and final speed differs from each other
