Detailed Solution

Given data in the problem,
Total distance covered by the object, = 16 + 16 
=>= 32 m Total time taken to covered the distance, = 4 + 2 = 6 s
By using the formula of speed,
Average speed, vav = Total distance travelledTotal time taken
=>vav = 326 =>vav = 5.33  So, the average speed of the object is 5.33 ms-1.
